A Ray of Hope

Deep beneath this cover of mortality
There are flicker demons battling with me
They wait patiently for my impuissant side 
But a fighter stands on the wings of evil
Once held back by a taunting past
Of abuse and disregard 
Hidden away waits a torrid woman 
Of fluid flesh and bone
Heart and soul 
Rendering love and kindness 
With a lasting yearning to succeed 
Now the wounds have since long ago healed 
But their affects periodical linger 
I have learned much from my own pain 
And the strength and courage I’ve acquired instill radiance 
That will radiate in my light of hope
