The Fight.

He had come.
The beast had finally arrived....
But the advantage was his and the fear was mine.
His massive frame deadly claws with venomous grime on the tips
Inhumane strength and sinuous limbs....
His gigantic head with dark violet glowing eyes
The long gnashing teeth that had destroyed many lives
But I swore to myself to avenge their death
But I felt myself gag when i smelled his fetid breath
The rancid stench that blew in the wind
Was enough to make my armored head spin
With a raucous laugh he approached
"Oh little warrior won't you come close?"
With fire in my eyes and some in my heart
I replied "Foul demon i will rip you apart!"
Again he laughed this time it was more like a roar
"we shall see who will kill whom at the end of the score"
With this said he threw himself in my direction
But i warded off his first blow by turning my shield to reflect him
At first i was quick and strong going blow for blow
But soon he wore me down and my heart began to know
His onslaught relentless, my stamina waning
His every attack intent on mortally maiming
I knew that somehow I must stop him here
But I couldn't seem to get my mind in gear
So I dug down deep within myself
And I knew within for certain that I needed help
And as the beast drew near for his final assault
I lifted my head to the heavens and called out to God
"Dear God, I know that you haven't always been first in my Life
But I am calling out and asking you to send angels to my side,
for this Beast is stealing my strength and destroying my fortitude
I am calling out in all sincerity and asking you
To destroy it as I know only you can
For I know that I am nothing more than a mortal man
My weapons are to no avail and my abilities give me no ground."
Then from the thunder streaked sky there came a sound
It was the voice of god and he simply replied
"My son that is all I asked of you to look to the skies"
Then from the heavens above their flew on wings of light angels two
Arrayed in shining armor their frames blazing bright and true
At the sound of His voice the Beast had stuttered to a hault
In his eyes I could see the fear that he was caught
At the sight of the avengers away in terror he fled
He could not escape even as fast as he sped
With righteous justice upon him they fell
After that there is no more to tell
I say that to say this: when times are rough and you look deep within
And you can't see your own light that you keep hidden
look up to the skies for they will give you hope
And it is on this I believe count and know
That there is someone higher than myself
And when the Beast comes calling just call on Him for help
He has saved me many times and I am grateful to have him in my Life
