What is True Power?

What is True Power?

A Poem by Gianni Rodriguez
"

A poem that questions the meaning of power.

"



What is true power?

Is it something one can hold?

A weapon of destruction,

That only the bold dare to hold.

Is true power found in physical strength?

Strength conditioned and well toned.

Strength in which ones muscles can be shown.

Is true strength in love?

For in the depths of darkness it brightly glows.

Like a beacon in the night,

in-powering those without hope.

Is true power in rage?

For in rage we let it all go.

Emotions are no longer a weakness.

For in rage there is only brute force weakness can not be grown.

Is true power knowledge?

To know all invisible and seen.

For it is in knowledge on can outwit ones enemies.

Is true power in death?

For in death we are freed from all things.

In death we are made perfect in are loved ones memories.
