Test Of Time Poem by Sven Rhoads

Straight through the heart you cut me deep
But I'll hold back the tears that have come to weep
I will be the stone to hold up your sky
For tonight is not the hour to come and die
I feel the pain that I cannot deny
But still for you I will have it hide
I will brave this coming razor storm
No matter how much I'm ripped and torn

Into the thick, it is time to fight
Forget the consequence, do what's right
For all you gave me has been divine
Now its time to live through the test of time

Jump into the fire to save them all
No wound sustained will make me fall
So pound upon me like the driving nail
I'll scream in victory for I cannot fail
I will burn the night when the stars fall out
I will be the confidence when you're full of doubt
If your wings are burning I will hold you high
You've given me so much now this turn is mine

I'll go in the darkness to pull you out
No abyss so deep will leave you lost
Its time for battle so hear me shout
Waste no time counting the cost

I'll always be here to stand by your side
You are not alone within this fight
Gather your strength, no backing down
I'm forever here with you
