Words of A Conqueror

Words of A Conqueror

A Poem by PHFASCES

Seated in my little corner away from the world

Thinking about my place in the universe

Smiling at how far I have travelled

Accepting all the bad I have been a part of

Growing from the shell I sealed myself up in

 

It is now I sit upon my thrown ready to depart

Setting foot upon a dark world only to conquer it with my own darkness

Later to wield a torch for those on the same journey

And as I rise to the top of the mountain that was my obstacle

All the pain I endured in the past falls down to the ground

A landslide of negative emotion replaced by a growing forest of positivity

 

With each step I take I become the person I envisioned myself to be

Full control of this sea of emotions I have

Breaking down the walls of insecurity

Slitting the throats of the beasts called fear

Reaching the top with the help of the Almighty

My strength and my shield at every beck and call

The gardener the garden that is my life

 

Now to let the madness that is my creativity and wisdom

Use it all to fuel my intuition, the voice of the Lord,

Thus tis the way that I tread in the path suited for me

Thus tis the way I make the chooses I was meant to make

Based on mental battles. It's a play on the process one undergoes when in a state of change, especially when at the peak of self improvement, and is letting negative influences out and moving on and taking control of their own life. There is a religious element to it. Its also a break away from being manipulated by others and wanting to impress and transforming into one that refuses to be a part of that lifestyle as it only brings misery.

Love the fact that 'taking control' was the ultimate priority based in this piece. Really amazing.
Thank you
