Poetry

My poem for this week is:
 
The Battlefield Within

The battlefield within,
Holds such power on a soul.

I can see the light
Can reach it,
Grasp it tight
And sure my hold.

But the darkness
Reaches for me:
Grabs a foot,
A leg,
Or more.

Then the battle is upon me.
In an instant
I’m at war.

The darkness
Swells around me.
Reaching
Inward,
Holding tight.

And I struggle to reach upward.
But it’s hard
To hold the light.

Can I make it?
Is it in me?
No.
My strength is
Growing weak…


But
The power’s in my Savior
I have only but,
To seek.
