I Call You Out ~*Marge Tindal*~ ![]() Make no mistake, I call you out Shadow of half-hidden doubt Stand before me, face to face I will defeat you in this place Demon deep, though you may be No longer will you hide in me Take your leave, I will not cower Recessed in curtains of your power I tremble not, in drench of fear You will not conquer from the rear Face to face I will dethrone The power that you think you own I call you out - turn around Fortress in myself is found Fright of you - I have none Fear, I feel your time is done Embodied in new attitude I proclaim victory in magnitude~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Without reading others replies, this one needs to be given to anyone who has ever dealt with depression...as a sign of hope that they, too, can deal with it, given inner strength and TLC from kind and loving friends. At least, this is how this one struck me. Well done, our Marge! |

SueTang~ Trying to share with others that strength lies within. Thank you. Mysteria~ Hoping it helps any and all who might have need of the lesson. *Hugs* Gail~ You go girl ! ![]() Maeve~ It is with the reader that I gladly share. RSWells~ Thank you. ![]() LadyInWhite~ Recognition of fear is half the battle of it's defeat. Face to face confrontation can defeat fear, with help, love and support. Melissa~ By recognizing fear ... and 'calling it out' we can often beat it to the punch. *Hugs* Vicky~ You know how I feel for those who need most to hear this~ Hoping to help shed a little light on internal strength ! Thanks, hon. InterLoper~ Fear sneaks up behind Locks one in a clutch of steel Never shows it's face Summoning of strength Does not come so easily But, it can be done ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |
