Fear Not

There is a battle ahead
Blood will be shed
But fear not
I will be with you

I AM your shield to protect you
I AM your tower to watch over you
I AM your sword to slay your enemies
I AM your healer to mend your wounds
I AM your comforter to bring hope
I AM your refuge to shelter you


You will cry and moan
You will feel all alone
But fear not
I will not leave you

I know pain for I have been pierced
I know sorrow for I have wept
I know loneliness for I have been abandoned
I know brokenness for I have been betrayed
I know shame for I was dishonored
I know death for I died for you

In this world you will
Have trouble and ills
But fear not
I have overcome the world

I AM for you; nothing, no one can be against you
You are not condemn; I made you righteous.
Trouble cannot separate you from my love
You are more than a conquerer
Not even death can take you from me
I AM victorious over death itself

    I agree with one of the previous comments in that the repitition did get a bit heavy handed and impeded the power of the poem a little. I think an edit of the poem, perhaps chopping out some of the I am's and I know's and perhaps changing some of them, finding other ways to say it. I do however very much like the message of the poem. You've created a strong and convincing figure whom the reader believes. Keep writing

    I love where the thought was going here. The repition of I am and I know was a bit much for me. I do thank you for your time in entering. God Bless.
