Some Must Fall To Hell


Some Must Fall To Hell

Some must reach the depths of their hell before finding themselves. Before realizing the gift that is life. Some must fill the burning of brimstone beneath their hearts and the piercing of their soul before leaping into the actions of it.

Some become so damned in their own skin they feel as if all hope is drained. That hell has consumed all breath and all that lay before them is misery and darkness.

But in this vacancy of hope, many find faith. Many find the beaming light that sits atop their mountains of freedom. Looking up with discern but feeling the grace that bleeds from these lights. And in the flowing of misery, they take their first step.

They lift their heavy soul and reach just a little further. And though their mountains towering in their presence. A sliver of promise falls into their heart and integrates into its rhythm. A promise of life, a promise that there is more to them than their suffering.

That the shadows that follow them are not all that is to be. That at the top of these vast mountains, lies an abundance of passion, of hope, of absolution from all that dwells within.

And in their first step, comes the strength for another. And though each step may feel as if they are meaningless, they find thought, that it is not this step. That it may be in the forcing of another step, they will find themselves.

For in the climbing of their mountains, they see behind them their decaying past. That many rotted roots must be severed from their blood to move on. That shadows hold like the falling of another, pleading to be rescued. But only lies seethe from their teeth and corruption thrives in their guts.

And as they take each step, releasing a bit of themselves from a shadow and carving their blood from wasted roots. They see the courage, the vitality, the substance of self. They see the darkness before them crack, allowing light to flow. They see the emptiness that coats them become diffused from their soul.

They feel the beat of their heart become mighty in its rhythm. Playing a beat they believed to be forgotten, to have been lost in the hell that devoured their once magnification heart. They find purity in their soul they believed to have drowned in the mud of affliction, of regret, and woe.

And with each new step they grow stronger, they find faith with each new path, raising themselves closer to the clouds. Keep going, they say to themselves, losing what no longer is needed. Releasing themselves of demons, of voices that only cast shade upon the soul.

And though this struggle to be free, may bring much pain, much sleepless nights and the lose of what is known. They find that with each new step, closer and closer to the top of their mountains. They find each new step to bring a great view, they feel the air to bring life. They feel themselves become something more of what they want.

No longer crowded in disparaging thoughts. Finding themselves empowered by the sacrifices they have made in the climbing of their freedom. And though the paths of the mountains are harsh in their nature, their is new breath to be consumed, new hope, new thought, and new blood.

Some do not find the courage to tear down the old and journey to the new, till their backs are bleeding against their own wall.

A Summer Bird's Winter Perch

A Summer Bird's Winter Perch   I watch this lonely bird chirp upon a slopping branch. Its feet wrapped firmly around the thin finger of bark. As I watch, I commiserate its position. Sitting there, alone, singing with no others to listen. Speaking I assume, to itself.   Maybe contemplating its unfortunate circumstance. For the rest had already left for the winter. If I am not mistaken it was only a few days ago that I watched a flurry of birds dart by. Their wings flapping against the brisk wind collectively. Not a single one appeared worried of their journey.   Their shadows crawled quickly across the empty streets during a fall evening. I watched them pass by like a feather floating down stream. I couldn't help but wonder, how long must they fly? What winds must they fight, what elements must they battle against? All must be against them as is every moment in time is against us all?   Yet they fly forth to the heat of earth. Dependent upon their survival but, what

  Step Out! Out, Out from the gloom, The obscure breath of doubt Take stone, break thy yoke, Let trouble fall, let shoulders be lifted, Flow, to the heavens Be but strain no more, Open wide, thy mouth, Let prayer fill thy tongue Be parched no more. Stillness in heart  Though seas roar like lions, And beast snarl among mist, Step,  Out! To mercy of life, Ease, be reborn. Let no shackle of past Be meaning for tear Take hammer,  Fracture the cumbersome Be feet of swift Fill your days with strides, Though dunes widen And heat scorches thy soles. Out, Step out from thy fear, There is another to call To breach, To reach your heart  Though thee be of man, Let not thy eyes of flesh Be the dealings of truth, Wander, In aspect to be whole Be not the coward hidden in cave, A creature curled  Like frightened doe, For he walks beside thee, Like king among his men, A sword of greatness Sways from his belt, Ready, To swing against thy enemies, A presence more bold  Than all the stars of a pitch sky.
