‘Soar’ by Deborah Dabieh

It picks at her brain slowly unravelling the pieces of her mind that were hidden now the darkness has come to light the putrid smell of depravity clogs her senses burning sulphur the stench so horrific she chokes on her thoughts filling her subconscious with dread and despair the mind like some vicious parasite crawling underneath the membranes of her skull unreachable constant torture her head swelling out of the confines of its straight jacket unable to decipher the origins of this disease she stumbles around in the pitch-black depths of the abyss she has created by drowning her truth unaware of who or what she is anymore lost in the depths of a raging storm she finds solace in its eye watching it all fall down and so destruction looms around her solidifying this fate this descent into desolation but her eyes are fixed on the one above who promises restitution if faith is wielded like a sword yes the breastplate of strength shall protect her and her feet are firmly planted in hope – this is not the end no she will forge a new path a new realm where the light shineth in the darkness and it comprehendeth it not, for we are all given to our choices and free will shall be the curse which leads to our undoing slowly chipping away at our humanity until there is nothing left but blood however it shall be a blessing to those who rise above the primal instincts to slay whether physically or spiritually those who are given to pursuing and inspiring light for they shall reach the promised land and prove that the sky is not the limit when you have wings.
