FIGHTING THE ODDS WITH MY BELIEF

Time's prison
Tries to prevent me
From reaching out to her world.

Sorrow's knives
Keep striking at me
Yet hope acts like the best shield.

I defy
Every barrier
And keep moving undeterred.

Delilahs
Of this modern age
Can't entrap and deceive me.

My faith is
My strongest weapon
And my love for her is safe.

On the path
Of fidelity
My heart is always with her.

Nights are long
And their mournful eyes
Make my struggle difficult.

Some days too
Make me melancholic
Yet God helps me to move on.

Nothing can
Enchain me for long
From success and achievements.

She is mine
My Maker knows this
And His will always prevails.

She too proves
Her true love for me
So nothing can make us part.

She saved me
When I was knocked down
And God blessed me yet again.

My beloved
She shall always be
And this fact is my belief.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is a poetic description of how I am defying and beating the odds of opposition while moving on my mystical path -- on which even my beloved, rare woman -- also happens to travel.
