A Spirit Freed
Darkness came to wield its toll
Its goal, it seemed, her very soul
Talons clenched to hold her tight
Exhales of fire to blind her sight
Tried its might to break her will
Through the fear, her heart was still
Darkness seldom met her kind
To break free, the light she’d find
Trust in God be all she need
No threat of dark, a spirit freed
These words were inspired by the strength of my sister, Diana. Faced with a cruel disease that threatened not only her body, but her faith in God, she emerged victorious and stronger than ever.
