Alone

Alone in the storm she wept
The trees around her swayed
As The frost in her soul crept
Closer until at last she was stayed

The rain drenching her heart
Till her last breath did she take
Only to cry out with a start
That God would not forsake

If only He would save
Her life again she would not take
A cold clean cut never again to crave
To him she could at last give her heartache

Out of the shadows a man did appear
To pick her up and dry all her tears
Shocked to see his eyes so sincere
She stood in embarrassment as he washed away the smears

Away from the pain of life you can walk
on one condition you must do
And it's a lot to see you'll be in shock
My death you must watch me go through

Upon a tree cut for shame
The punishment of all man kind
Will be the only blame
Please accept this with open mind

For my love for you is ever true
If you accept this I'll pay your debt
You'll see me rise and that's your cue
New life I've given you after this reset
