Poem Title:
Poem
It's hard to close my eyes and pretend it's all ok That my heart healed as if nothing ever occurred I faintly believe in tomorrow, since today is all but joy Least the sun still warms my faith As for my dreams, they fell in death long ago I once was a great writer, inspired by emotion and a swollen heart Only my spirit lingers by, waiting only to fall into history I question then my imperfections, my flaws and my fears I wept long ago for my own fate, still alone I found peace As I came to terms with whom I am Slowly I drown in reality, that my image too has fled from beauty I only ask why, why me An eternal spirit I am, for life beyond the flesh is available Will I take part in that promised eternity Or will I too become nothing Only God knows, father of creation Everlasting love and force of life Take pity upon my desolated heart I write only from my fears, and broken dreams The moon stands witness to my tears My walls stand witness to my remorse and repent If only I had done things differently, if only I wasn't made to sin For the only outcome to sin is death Patiently we all perish to dust Still our souls walk to pay account for our deeds here on earth How many then shall be saved? He said only the pure of heart shall see God Point out then a single soul pure of heart Man stains his purity with greed and malicious acts of insignificant pleasures Take pity my Lord upon those whom are about to be in your presence on judgement day Take pity upon my heavy heart Mercy father for this world is in the enemies hand, and I in the worlds hand In Jesus name, amen
