Not Your King

Sep 8, 2021
2 min read

They heard me yell,

ignored my call.

My hand to take,

they watched me fall.


They watched me break,

they saw me bruised.

My heart to save, and

my love to lose.


Their smirks so smug,

I asked to stay.

They laughed at me,

then said, “Go away.”


Demons dance

while angels sing.

It’s okay to run

they’re not your king.



I took my chance,

I took them all.

And now it’s time

to watch me crawl.


You saw me break,

yet no longer bruised.

I was afraid to win

until I had to lose.


Faith built strong,

steady upon my back,

The burdens I carry

like my favorite rucksack.


Demons dance

while angels sing.

You’ve done it now

you are the King.



Glasses shattered

while skin broke,

Dragged by hair,

with hands to choke.


Blood-drenched rocks

with dusty hair.

They call it suicide

not right, not fair.


Our shadows dance,

no time to save.

They cheated me,

then dug my grave.


Demons dance

while angels sing.

Let this love go

he’s not your king.


Expectations shattered

while curses broke

,Moved by mountains,

no fear to choke.


My life to save,

I saved myself.

In present days,

I’ve walked through hell.


Spirit says

I rode the waves

To find my breath

beyond the grave.


Demons dance

while angels sing.

Congratulations

you are your King.


Trust was broken,

yet still I craved

To be reborn,

a new path to pave.


I asked to stay

and was told to leave.

With weightless words, i

t is their soul I grieve.


Tears like diamonds,

they took them all.

House of cards,

I watched us fall.


Angels dance

while demons cry.

It’s not your kingdom

let this one die.


Trust is building

from within these walls.

As I trust myself,

the less I fall.


I choose to try,

with faith to fly,

With my courageous heart

to the next part.


So now I’ve gone,

I took my leap.

Now in this life,

it is my soul I keep.


Demons sing

while angels dance.

You are the King,

and this is your chance.
