Ravenous

The thought of yester years

Sparked the tears that made her clearer

Pain welded the resolve stronger

I kissed her cheek and grew fonder

How much longer?

Will she unlock this gift I see?

Devil touched her young

To kill a spirit so full before it is realized

Her heart so big

She feels it all

Only way to cope is to bury it

So deep it’s cavernous

Spirits ravenous

Why do we let them inhabit us?

Grave danger

Their hunger our souls devour

Wash away this hurt
May the fighting spirit reside in us

Bring forth the light

We took flight and gave thanks

From the banks of the river Jordan

Adorn the gifts he laid for us 

Be within me Oh God

Guide us with the spirit I thank thee

Oh please

Wipe the evil from your eyes

Come see with me.
