Prophecy
Reach down to me, I plea for help
A battle goes on between my soul and my heart
I cannot pick a side, for at my option death will be there waiting to lay her bones upon my flesh
I can hear it all
Broken hopes and dreams cry horribly
Shattered promises clash like Roman spears
I hurt with great pain and anguish
Blood-shot eyes, and I see nothing my way
Is this war to prolong and forever stay
I feel I am being followed by her game
She whispers in broken phrases
Unable to understand I break in two
A curse plays hide and seek with me
I fear its going to win
What will then become of I
Am I to lay with the underworld
For the battle that dwells in me, an audience pays ears
The one whom knows it all, about suffering and dying
Fear the night
The moon shall turn to blood
The sun shall be a dwarf, its light will be no more
The battle will cease
I will loose
But again I will walk to be judged
I will rise when He calls my name
I will praise
Will I live again
Seek His heart, let Him cease your battle
Only He can make you whole
For my God is love
Amen.
