Man's Last Great Empire Fallen:On the Fields of Armageddon

Nero' ruthlessly orders another fierce assault While Rome Stands weakened, cracking at its fault Land now obsession, a thirst he cannot quench Bodies left now rotting, ungodly the stench Like Sodom before, Roman skies pour down fiery rain Red through her rivers, as blood through a vein. Faithful soon question, God's written word? Endless pleas and prayers, centuries left unheard. Our Savior's promise; unfulfilled, yet again! Now questioning the "if," rather than, the when? Swallowed by suffering, as shells into sand. Endless Atrocity, Surely Revelations at Hand. From Heaven, a final repent; God desperately urges. While of the bloodied sea, a beast soon emerges. No doubt now remains, the first seal is broken From his Earthly sleep, a False prophet's awoken. All seals broke, and horns all sounded. Every souls fate, sealed and bounded Billions sin freely, even denying God is real. But at Judgment, before God, all willfully kneel! Those once blind in the flesh, now granted sight The righteous ones alone, God bathes in his delight Christians lived knowing, more suffering was always near But, In death, sinners alone bear the burden of this fear God grasps his children, his creation held most dear These Souls admire the beauty, within HIS godly sphere.
