God did not give me a spirit of fear but one of power and of love and of sound mind


Your grasp was choking me
pulling the breath of life from my lungs
taking my very essence from my body
you twist and pull at my innocent soul
making me want to break free
free from your alluring image
but instead i am trapped in your power of darkness
but you dont win
he came so that i can live again
live to be free from sin
so i refuse to be pinned
pinned down to the ground
just so you can keep telling your age old lies
that keep us tied

wow, this poem is amazing! i really like it. i like how i interpreted it another way until i saw that you were talking about satan and God. This is a very strong piece of writing. I wanted to know, is there any possible way I could use the first few lines of this poem in a poem of my own. I was looking for the right words to use and you just gave them to me. Please? Well, your writing is great and don't ever stop. God bless you!
