Wrestle

In the ring alone, Gloveless and silent The competitor walks down Challenge in his eyes Is that what he wants Who is better, who's stronger It is my ring now, I'm in the centre Yet putting on his gloves He steals the middle Interrupting my silence, My gloveless moment And I just stand firm I will not give in Blow me, black me out, I will still remain gloveless In their corner, far away I won't challenge by a fight My soul may not feel alright But I will still stand firm I will avoid the wrestle

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
