deliverance

silence surrounds me
like air on a summer's day
suffocating, thick.

my ears made unsheathe
listening to whisperings
of spirits amidst.

they say "come with us,
we will take it all away."
like sirens, they sang.

i sat still to wait
for their voices to die down.
i will not listen.

i hearkened a sound
clear, sharp, but soft like a breeze
calling out to me.

"i am, i have come
i will now deliver you
for you have called me."

in stillness, i wait
with great anticipation
for freedom is nigh!
