Vanquish

Please master all fears
Discover laughter
My soul is a star 
In the heat of love
Burning through the day
	Into the night
Subdue resistance
Quell ignorance
Defeat the enemy of love
Are you there?
Do you hear?
Humble the complexity 
Rushing in to object 
Make up for what I leave behind
Hustle my love into the future
With you
Vanquish irrational personalities
Extinguish the fires burning 
Ashes and dust soon a pyramid 
Decay and rust
The wind sweeps
Angels weep
Keeping a promise 
Behold another day!

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.
