When the Darkness Met Its Match
You took the first step and the path bloomed with pride for you. There were no wrong turns, a gift waited in disguise for you.
Life refused to let you fall. No, love, it conspired with you. You wiped your tears away, the fire roared alive in you.
You made the shadows dance, letting them witness life thrive in you. You crossed the dark edge and dragged the Devil to the light in you.
Spirit awakening to itself, burning the shadows of doubt in you. Melting the chains of destruction, the old world crumbling in fright of you.
You broke into laughter and made the wolves howl in delight for you. Sweat dripping, eyes blazing, the holy earth shook with the might of you.
It’s time to trust the unknowing. It’s time to rest the fight in you. Your every longing aches to finally live its life in you.
This freedom is yours. You summoned its flight to you. You took another step and found the truth alight in you.
There were no demons to fight Only survival that carved out the “you”. What a journey — the breath exhales, and the shadows bow to the spirit alive in you.
