The toll bells ring

Hallow here the toll bell ring
The ferry man has my name

Beware the lies Lucifer brings
You only have free will

I tasted just a little bite
Now he comes with all his might

Slowly cancer sinking in
Oh the price to pay for sin

You can't hold back the universal debt ,a price to pay,
I always knew about this day

Was it worth the pleasure thrill
Here he comes in for the kill

I am but just a man I give no excuse for actions
In every road a chain reaction

Listen God can you here my prayer
I am lost in the great nowhere

My love runs deeper than I ever show
I was never taught open expression
From a child I was fed depression

But I have no excuse

I see only now the clear reality of truth

Forgive me father for I have sinned.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
