The Fight


Sun shifts 'round the clouds,
Warming skin with brief touch.
Seeping through to darker soul,
'Though soul shrinks from light as such.

Easier to hide than fight,
To try to struggle for joy under gray.
Listless stagnant poison lies,
"There are no more hopeful days."

Stop! Wake up! Life remains!
To what eternal do you hold?
Drinking poison by choice,
Reckless, stupid, never bold.

Coward! Fearing being wrong.
Let go of choking pride!
Another poison, dragging to hell,
"I deserve to die."

Storms cover sun for a time,
Sun never leaves, prevails in the end.
Son never fails, never fears, believe!
Who are you, to be conquered by sin?

Is God enough? Answer Truth!
Dare you belittle and never try?
Stand! Grip firm! Light’s hand so near,
With a promise to never die.

Strength and courage in connection,
Dark and Alone banished.
Feel the fire that comes with Life,
Despair, poison, pride, vanquished!

Sun hides, unfriendly wind in the air,
Now lightened soul stands strong.
Yes, a battle to fight that dark,
But with Hope, Love, Life - forever belong.

  1. Beautiful imagery and thoughts! It is so much easier to hide than to fight, to sleep rather than to wake up!

    Thank you for sharing - I've got a little blogging present on my blog - wish it weren't virtual, but think of it as a hug!
