Dawn & Dusk

Dry bones
Worn down by life
Purpose stripped away
By the cruellest of knives

Ice forming
As the cold winds blow
Creaking and cracking
As its stronghold grows

Breath of God
Eternal flame
Ignites my passion
Severs glacial chains

It sets deep in my bones
As smouldering embers
Determination builds
Brooding in my every fibre

Flesh and skin
Are re-knitted
Human characteristics
Are re-fitted

Dry bones
By God, set right
Now a soldier
Against evil’s might
