The Sky Is Falling

The sky is falling and there is nothing I can do, 
No way to really know how, where, why or even who, 
I can't help you any more than I already have, 
And may God be with you through rough times ahead, 

All I can advise is to keep your Faith in the Grace, 
As we enter these next terrible and horrific days, 
Remember to keep your heart and mind pure and true, 
Love God with all your might and follow the golden rule, 

With these things in mind, protect what you love, 
Respect your beliefs for miracles from above, 
Give freely all that you have to those less fortunate, 
And guide your decisions by your love and not the bullet, 

This is so sad, and my heart is breaking thinking of you, 
Of all the trials, tribulations and tortures we will go through, 
Even though its not like the whole world wasn't warned, 
To be prepared for these upcoming days of ridicule and scorn, 

Now while I know that all of you have heard this before, 
Remember what it takes to be in the true army of the Lord, 
And always keep in mind of the Devil's greatest trick, 
That this isn't happening and he doesn't exist, 

I love you so fiercely and I will try to always be here, 
But I am so afraid that we have much more to fear, 
So take joy in the love of God and how you have been blessed, 
And pray for all people as we pass through this next test.
