Deity

patience abound as i 
awaited your arrival again 
the tangible task 
a gathering of yellow panzie's 
blooming at my feet 
as night crawled under day 
the beast lie in his nature 
solace a sullen haste opened 
the sky while the ground rumbled
i'd wandered far off my path again 
seeking redemption a sigh of relief 
salvation a simple martyr 
sacrificed craving his will 
entering ancient territories 
mine eyes focused solely on his 
as blood rushed from his side 
his hands limped his feet 
bounded together by steal 
metal fragments wooden thorns 
pierce his skull in a moments glance 
bloody tears stained my blouse 
the beacon hue soars brightly over me 
trinity landed beside me whispering 
peace be with you
