Remember My Prayer (Angel of Sadness)

We the people of this forsaken garden 
As one, as a whole, as separate individuals 
Have been chosen, among the few 
Subtracted from the many 
As I stand now, I shall be received 
And you shall witness 
What these days will become 
The truth in trials, that everyman reveals 
Have you forgotten we lost souls? 
P.S. It shall all be over soon 
I do not want your bread 
I shall not drink your water 
If offered I will not accept you sympathy 
I do not come for your young 
Your dying or those innocent by standers 
Be not fearful, for I come not in vengeance 
I do not wish you to frown 
These mysteries of deception 
Simple task that every man shall embrace 
Again, have you forgotten your lost saints? 
P.S. it will all be over soon 
This mischief is not what you have learned 
Through patterns of our failing days 
Consequences of nightmares 
I present this unknown behavior 
This reality that you define as happiness 
I am overjoyed 
Still I object 
It is the misery of your savior given twice 
Carry this whisper 
And you will speak of it later 
It seems you have forgotten we lost souls 
P.S. it will all be over soon 
Though we each appear to be deaf 
You will abide by a higher existence 
If not death, then until life does us well 
And as I march 
Continuously against every odd I embark 
I ask that you, dwell in our presence 
As I will flower on the ever of a new dawn 
I ask you to read 
For it will all be over soon 
Sincerely your forgotten saint
