Let Them Come

Let Them Come

A Poem by Luis Gabriel
"

lol produced by a living fit of emotion lol.

"

You’re lost inside. Your tired and you run.

This isn’t a game anymore. This isn’t fun.

Come, child don’t be afraid take my hand

For both of us, God has a magnificent plan

 

You want a knight in shining armor. A warrior

Bring me a sword then, I will put on the armor

You say you have enemies. Let them come

I will show them fear and teach them to run

 

Fortresses impede and great towers trap you?

I will smash them; they are dusts before the truth

I will grind them beneath my feet, broken by hammer

Shh quite child its ok now, utter no sob nor stammer

 

They seek your faith. LET THEM COME

They destroy your virtue with lies constantly spun.

They seek your life. LET THEM COME

They stole your smile and laugh, I say LET THEM COME

 

I shall say to them: "you have no right here, get away"

Should they try, THEY SHALL NOT PASS

They chase you with fear all the night and all the day

Their attempts will wither as their bones turn to grass

 

I will protect you. Let my arms and legs be ancient trees

My feet let them be boulders of times half past old

My torso a hollow trunk to rest your heart and soul

My hand bees nest, for attackers who seek your heart to freeze

 

I will be your shelter, have no fear

I will be the one to wipe away those tears

I will be your body if you will be my heart

I will be yours from the very start

I can definitely feel your emotion through your words. I enjoyed the rhyme scheme and feel along with the repetition added to the strength in the poem. I am glad Debra Stevens recommended I read this.

Luis this is athing of beauty and the way you always speak of your faith is inspiring to the reader. It sounds like unconditional love and even in love you are empowered by God and his love for you. This is profound and moving statement of who you are. Bravo!
