Warrior Bride
She left the country where she was raised,
To pursue her endeavors, no longer a slave,
She climbed mountains and swam through swamp lakes,
To be relieved from all the past hurts and mistakes,
She treaded upon scorpions, demolished serpent skins,
To connect with a fire that burned deep within,
She ran from the flock only to be brought back again,
To teach this new remnant how to boldly fend,
For…
Everything and anything noble and true,
Break down the borders of doubt and ridicule,
All that aspire to conquer what is right,
Sinister smiles that feed on broken appetites,
Graves that are rolling and men who control
Chants in the night intended to steal someone’s soul
Laughter of failure,A spirit in tears
This warrior princess helped many in fear.
She ripped out the thorns that lagged in her side,
To humble her heart and swallow her pride,
She drank of the water that brings bones back from the dead,
To deepen her love and renew what was in her head,
She gave with a smile and listened to their pain,
To heal those in trouble with divinity rain,
She took on a role that others despised,
To enable the weak to look up and arise,
She knew it was time to fight with all her might,
To allow the Holy Spirit to make her destiny right,
She spoke to the masses and sang to the stacks
To a beautiful melody of "I am never going back."
