Path of the WarriorA Poem by EJ ServellonThere is a beating of a drum beyond time, that calls withinWithin the deep
silence, there is a beat. The beating of a
drum, in the profoundness of the cosmos. Slowly building to a
wave of thunder. Awakening a
revolution within. A warrior to
initiation, a calling. For a time, he has
been a servant. A servant of two
masters. On and off. But he knows he
cannot serve two masters. and so the journey begins….a
storm. Do you choose Fear or
Love?
The beat of his
heart, pulses with the flux of his soul. Merging with the
beating of the drum, The shaking leaves of
the chakapa, The sound of a
thousand rattles! All bringing in the
cry of the tribe as ONE! A call to your hero’s
journey. A way, a path of the
warrior. An inward journey
into a dark cave of wonders. Into the unknown, to
free himself. To confront a master
that seeks to keep him imprisoned. A master known as fear,
that says love is not safe. To put on armor, to
keep love out. A warrior goes to war
without armor, As he knows that
fear..is a LIAR! A warrior is called
to wake up every morning. To file the callouses
from his senses. To trade a thousand
days of comfort, for the call to adventure! A chance at victory! For something greater
than himself. Something greater,
that echoes in the halls of destiny.
Jagged rocks lay
ahead. Monsters lurking in
the shadows. A warrior goes to the
deepest parts of the ocean with reckless abandon! Risking the ship and
all! Despite.. He knows the drum,
the rattles, the chakapa maintain a steady beat towards love. Knowing that fear is
only the great antagonist of love. A warrior embraces
the story of his life. As one tribe embraces
the story of their lives together. Whether good or bad,
high or low. A call to be a Hero. To fall in LOVE. To have his heart
broken, torn, shattered! Only to fall in LOVE
again…and again. To Fail! Only to overcome
again…and again. This is the warrior’s
way of life. A way of thinking, A way of feeling A way of existing A way of being A way of LOVING. Do you choose to be a
warrior?!....or ordinary. The world may only
see blessings or curses…. The warrior only sees
opportunities, and challenges. How to find your true
calling?! ..Be STILL and hear
the voice, the beat, the cry! The Universe will
only give what is sought…believed. In the face of
clawing monsters and shadows, a warrior has FAITH and stands his ground. A perfect recipe for
miracles! ..and miracles manifest. His belief in
transformation, change…makes his life change. In turn, his world
changes. A warrior’s fight is
for one reason alone. LOVE..Unconditional
LOVE. He is a grand storm. An undying flame into
the halls of eternity. He is one with the
beating of the drum, the rattles, the chakapa, the Universe. The pulse of ALL THAT
IS. Ever shall be. World without end. © 2019 EJ Servellon |
