There Is Such a Man

You're an individual.
 You're unique. 
And it's important that you 
create the space to 
express your uniqueness, 
and become the fully expressed, 
fully unleashed, 
fully unlimited vibrancy that you are.
There's a stage in a mans life 
when he will keep 
every other thing aside 
and stand alone without fear 
to confront whatever obstacle 
that stand in his way,
even intimidation from 
the most powerful 
or care that beset him 
and infest his life,
his inadequacies he will confront 
and challenge them with boldness.
Even when the 
demons of hell be invoked 
and conjured up to come forth
 and do their very worse,
he knows they shall not pass 
and neither shall they prevail,
because he has been through a lot,
he doesn't really cared 
anymore what happens to him,
he has come a long way 
and he's here now,
that is  all that matters. 
He speaks the truth 
that only him can speak,
so profound and will so piercingly hurts 
the ears of the guilty ones.
he will boldly stand on the edge 
of the mountain top 
and let the wind of life pass forcefully 
through and over him.
he becomes a determined soul 
who confronts the odds in his life,
with the help of the almighty,
he attains the consciousness of the cosmic,
his spirit is now so awakened,
he becomes one with universe,
so enlightened,
he is now an adept to 
help in the down world,
carrier of the divine light,
protector of the weak,
full of vigor,
always ready,
a doer of the impossible,
he now becomes 
the keeper of the flame,
his back bent from the rigours 
of suffering and pain,
showing the marks of 
the whiplash he received,
his brows so wrinkled with 
inner wisdom that comes out of the 
time spent in long hours 
of fasting and meditations,
calm with the inner beauty of the spirit,
not intimidating or forceful,
he commands authority,
exacts influence and check anything 
that's not edifying from 
influencing his environment 
and atmosphere he created for himself 
and then allow others into his world 
to experience the realm 
of power bestowed on him,
he is indeed now,
a peculiar fellow,
a workman that needs not be afraid,
one set apart for good works,
for he has chosen the path of his destiny. 
Yes,there is such a man amongst us.
