Surrounded by darkness,
doubting every step that I make,
creates an atmosphere
in which is hard to create.
Not knowing the direction,
striving for perfection,
keeps my heart in isolation,
and I end up in frustration.
Praying day and night
for Divine revelation…
alas, reality does not meet
my expectations.
Fear is crawling
in the chambers of my heart,
dictating if I take
left or right.
I struggle to fight back,
but without the mercy
of Your Divine hand,
I don’t see any chance
for me to get out!
‘Hey, brother fear,
I tried diplomacy and
kind words,
but you refuse to hear!’
Thus, there is only
one thing left to do
and that is wage war against you!
Let me call upon an army of saints!
Let me call upon the Divine Names!
Let the scriptures become my armour!
And let my japa mala become my sword!
‘Dear brother fear,
I solemnly declare,
that it is time for you to prepare,
to lose the grip of my heart!
I shall fight you from within
and from without,
I shall fight you from the left
and from the right,
I shall fight you from below
and from above!
There is no place for you to hide,
for I have the Divine on my side!
Thus, prepare yourself for battle,
as I am tired of you
telling me how to behave!
Thus, prepare yourself for battle,
as I am tired of you
stopping me
from stepping into my gladiator nature!
