The Seals

Dark purple lips and nails moving slowly on the wall with thick red blood stain on the surface, something must have happened there because people were gathering from far and near to find out what had transpired over there; some were whispering, others were chatting and bulging eyes were popping from the sky and I watched the universe slowly moved by. Something is pounding in the deep that keeps disrupting my nightly sleep; I kept hearing the rattling sound coming from the basement beneath the ground, it’s as if someone was buried in the concrete and struggling each minute to stay alive but the sound kept shouting from the ground and I struggled immensely to wake from my sleep. The crowd began to swell and the voices began to spread, the knocking gets louder and human voices broke through the ground, prompting a sharp response from everyone that gathers around. From sticks and stones and metals in the ground they carefully remove every particle until they finally dug me out of the ground, I am still alive but my soul began to cry, and I reached out and touch the hands that rescue me from the deep. My body was shaking and my heart was beating and the people that brought me from the deep were rejoicing at the unimaginable rescue and I felt that special touch that was different from everything I knew and my spirit suddenly came alive and I finally opened my eyes and I saw you in the shadows with tears streaming from your face and that special seal was all over you.
