Claims of the soul

Post by Tjflowers80 » November 27th, 2014, 12:18 am

No more;
Go demon;
Leave this shore;
I claim my freedom!

I am born anew;
My light outshines thy dark;
My soul is brighter than you;
My freedom shall embark.

This is my journey;
I'm leaving you behind;
Woe nebulous, we both are free;
Your chains I unbind!

Do your worse my foe;
No longer do I fear thee demon;
Tis you I've let go
And now we both have our freedom!
And above me the stars align
But not yet with my own
And the night birds sing
Whilst the demon haunts this restless soul.

You know, this is a powerful invocation. To put it in your own poem
makes it powerful.

i like the ending.....acknowledging the symbiosis
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Thank you for your comments.

But not yet with my own
