It'stime

A brutal truth finally faced No more backstroking through my existance. And from a distance and through a mirror darkly, I see my ragged image through the eyes of my creator Only then do i notice the tears in his eyes, As he tells of my mission i denied But i was the only one who believed the lie, Forsaking a calling that that would make my soul rise. But no more Today i surrender my entire being To giving my all for the call Determined never again to fall Though i may be mocked or cursed Or face things far worse I count it all joy for this day i chose Never to lose My eternal place of rest in the arms of the blessed, For this day im reborn.
