A silent infidel
A tormented soul
This war is not an earthly battle
Nothing made by man
But an inner war
Of mind, heart and body
My journey through life seems more an assignment
and though I want to stop
I remind myself,
You cant just stop living
'Cuz then you stop giving
and when you stop giving,
Life isn't worth living
This war rages on
Emotions step in.
But soon they too become captive.
I drift between them to make certain they're still there
And then to my horror,
I forgot love
I search for some feeling
But dont find the right one,
My life suddenly hit me
This dark lonely cell
One door and one window
each holds one promise
So I peek out the window
What a beautiful site!
Green hills and blue rivers!
Pure light from above
I want to be there
and live life like that!
So i run to the door
and push with my might,
It did not come easy
But was well worth the fight
I turn back and look at my dank, musty cell
And relise that I had built it for me.
The walls were just words, hardly sturdy at all
The door was just feelings and with a push it fell
That whole cell fell down
With just a few small shoves
The thing i had made for myself was gone
So now here I stand
In this lush green plain,
Were Hope runs like a river
And the soft breeze of love,
Blows the green grasses of life
I know it will rain
And probably storm
But I know I can get by it
Come what may
Because now i am stronger,
I have found day.
and so my war ends
And I am at peace
For i have found freedom
For a time at least.
