She wore endurance as a cloak. Tried ever so sorely and wrongly, she committed all to the Vindicator. In her resolute quietness, she spoke volumes. For her ardent disparagers, her payback was tireless hours of intercession. As she stoically embraced undeserved tribulations, she gained character, wisdom, and tranquility. Who dares put out the brilliance of a star? Her sublimity resonates evermore in the darkest patch of the night. Though seared with scars, her stellar virtues are glaring, illuminating hearts and inspiring minds. She can’t feign ordinariness, even if she hides behind her own shadow. Detached from a frenzied world, she derived her essence from heavenly fire. Oh, had they known the fount from whence she drank, they would not have, in malignity, ensnared their own souls in a bid to put out her luminous radiance. They have murdered sleep through their ignoble gestures. Behold the star as she abides in the firmaments! Purified by the trials and tribulations, she stoically endures and thrives. The sky may be bespangled with twinkling stars, but her brilliance stands out in luminary distinction.

Assigned by angels to be the vessel of your opal eyes I don't mind These days all I want to see is the radiance you bring forth a tranquil break in the folds streaming through me As I stand in regard with the threads of yours wrapped around mine a spatial interlude long glimpses at your blueprints in my sights the daybreak of my existence the gleaming brilliance of yellow the daring cosmos of nights’ sky Those night skies its expanse I clear with no expense I only hope for you for you to notice the bones of mine that bloom after you a synthesis so sweet as I see you glance back to me as we dance across this field as I tread light a nimbus and a kite the vessel of your opal eyes a contract laced with gold dusted with your breath.

It is said that it's the early bird which catches the worm and that in matters of principle we should all stand firm. But what if the birds are many and the worms are few, those principles people adhere to are unjust and untrue? _____________________________

Cutting through devils flesh, bones and marrows, Healing sorrow, it's wielders never cold or shallow, All Divinity or Nature destroyed is healed and harrowed, Behold, the gift of the Goddess: The Sword of Shadows. Despite cold hearts making our world a burning hell, Despite many angels, light bearing souls, who somehow fell, Despite those taking pleasure from greed, envy and sin, Warm Hearts realize The Goddess is indeed our kin, Despite endless waves of lives and death, Despite moments when even good has lost life and breath, Despite the sinuous evil and creeping dark, One receives his Sword when Healthy with Halo and Heart. For a Sword Bold of times Old, your heart must stay warm, Even when anger for a purge starts and your mind 's a storm, May every plot against Humanity forever fold or foil, A Sword waiting for you, end all turmoil. With Knowledge gained either thought the art or craft, Sword of Shadows, Avenging all pains, even future and past... Only tears shed are that of Love and Joy, no remorse, To allow our dear Goddess in our world, All rejoice. A Sword of Shadows for Hearts Brave and True, Our Goddess Loves all, and has Sword for you.

The Goddess' Sword of Shadows
There's something peculiar about witnessing courage in the face of hatred True righteousness hits me deep It flourishes from within the way epiphanies bloom in scholars or the way love overwhelms young students There's majesty in the underdog who stands until his knees buckle who shouts until her voice breaks fueled only by fortitude mocked for feeling empathy hated for living truth In moments of moral principle I see peace amidst the chaos poetry amidst the prose in the eyes of the young and in the old who fight for justice

In a moment, All things may balance, All words and purpose, Align, To keep stress, Below the threshold. Or They may reach, Breaking point, And all the pressure, Cracks, Along the fault lines, And reveal the turmoil beneath.
