Above All

Beneath me lies the darkness Our shadow always peeking, The race that is not given swiftly But rather paced the pathway Steady creeping. Reluctant, yet persistent, unresolved, But least resistant. Traveling on through the living space, Encased in the flesh, waiting for eternity's Rest. I attest the eternity is real, whether kindled In the flaming abyss or within the warmth and Love of the Almighty. Direction- depends on reflection, light or darkness Good or evil. The pendulum has already swung, to which will The weight is equaled. Survival, without a weapon, is impending doom, Wearing the Word, death is defeated, the water Falling, a wilted flower begins to bloom Above all, taking the light of life, carrying your cross, And fighting for your life. Still, either way, it's not your own, however, your heart Already chose your final destination's ticket. One way. Consider this. Its permanent, SELAH Is your soul is worth fighting for........ You have but one- Persisting resisting, Above all …. Then you’ve really won. E.K.W.
