The battles that carved us into fighters brought out a dormant strength --nested deep inside our fearful souls ,awaiting the times of mental wars.
It grew, and fed on exhaustion, intolerant to requests of obedience and trepidation as if they were a nasty allergy -always launching an explosive reaction.
And as strength slowly bloomed like a May rose- or like a cherry tree reaching fruition-
fear shrank and fell like a useless appendix that served no purpose inside an evolved psyche. Shed like the leaves of deciduous saplings on an autumn afternoon.
So, when the time comes where fear is used against our souls , the ammunition of the tyrant will always fall short,
for we drained ourselves of this mind-made poison, and now our spirits only know vigour like the flowers that blossom under winter's white coat.
