The Light I inhale my worries deeply And exhale the scent of purple sunsets Gaining the strength and confidence To again walk that straight line without fear Deviating from self-conscious thoughts With feet burned twice over many The agony The time between idle time Feet and heart peeling Healing Visions of Prometheus Paying for pleasure with flesh and nakedness Branded on my skin the scars Tattoos that mark my determination Over the darkness and temptations My birthright just beyond my touch But dreams and faith have made promises To eventually transform my soul Into the bright white light seldom seen Embracing the golden handles of flaming swords Named righteousness and forgiveness Perhaps it is my destiny To be a guardian angel for sinners and saints So I smile at what must be And take another step for what will be As faint flickers of flames lick my hands And evil scatters in fear My time quickly approaching…….. Marcel |
