XX.“Battle”
“Tears fall from my eyes like raindrops from a windowsill
The clouds gather bringing an anxious tension
As a piercing roar interrupts the mute stillness…
I feel the first raindrops on my skin
Falling from my head, down my face
Looking up to the clouds stirring in the darkened heavens
I sense…
Fire
Engulfing the enigma in the desires of my heart
Rising as a Phoenix from its ashes…
Romance will not be one-sided,
Desires were not created to die unfulfilled
Love will not be one-sided…”
This battle nears its end.
The realization of this desire,
A reality reset in the cloudscape, draws ever near
And through prayer in hope and faith
It will live on until its completion
The day when I see you
And when I see you on that day,
When you look into my eyes
Filled and overflowing with tears
I wish for you to see
To know and understand,
You look at a warrior who has fought for you.
I understand now the weight of the joy
That awaits me in your eyes and embrace
