Battlefield

Local poet Lusanda Tyolo writes to motivate.

Lusanda Tyolo (written copy)

 

On the battlefield of life, there are battles we must confront without escape

Paralysed by fear and imprisoned by guilt

Your life purpose questioned

And your self-esteem shaken

Don’t surrender into failure, don’t give in to defeat

 

With faith you will overcome your fears and given the strength

With forgiveness you will be free from the past and present in the moment

With prayer and self-awareness, you will gain ownership of who you are

And ownership of your life, your choices, your dreams

You will know who you are and no one will tell you otherwise

With confidence you will build up your self-esteem

You have victory over defeat.
