In The End
I never want to feel that again,
I saw your darkness in the end,
I never understood how you felt,
Until I saw you turning into someone else,
Trapped beyond what I could comprehend,
I was shown the severity behind the man,
Coming towards me from all different directions,
Rebuking while running for my life for protection,
Leading another girl out of the house,
I have no idea who she was but we both got out,
As I looked back into the room you were standing behind a brick wall,
All you could do was stare at me but you couldn't come near me at all,
As I woke from the dream in tears, my heart pounding hard,
I prayed Lord, was this really the condition of his heart?
Layers upon layers that I could not see,
Until I was shown spiritually,
My heart overwhelmed, I just sat and cried,
I asked God to protect his heart and his life,
Through all of this God was protecting my soul,
Showing me in the end how to let him go.
