The Truth - India.Arie


Soldier of Souls-- {an LD Challenge}

Modern day Messiah...

holds me in his arms as he
defends me...
warding off the enemy.

Before he came
nightmares accosted me
each and every night...
the hands of yesteryear's assailants
hungrily groping me...
but he...
stood guard over me...
offered me mental and psychic weaponry...
taught me how to
guide my mind and
direct my soul...

and the nightmares...

stopped.

He noticed the root behind my
blind rage...and being the
sage that he is...he guided me...
with wisdom abounding and he
molded my mutable soul into something
beautiful...and I
may still lose control...but he
speaks to me from somewhere in my soul...
and he...
guides me back to the center....

He is the
soldier of souls...

guiding and directing
teaching and professing...

listen with your eyes
read his soul
absorb and digest
enlightenment...

this modern day Messiah...

{Written for a GS poet who epitomizes manhood ... dropping wisdom daily}
