The Wait

Oh the travails 
The pumping of the blood 
Filled with anxiety flowing 
through my bloodstream 

The thirst of his coming 
Filled with doubts from the pit 
of destruction 
Will he ever come? 
If he does decide,when? 

The cataclysmic nature of his 
coming alone is a bane to my 
soul 

Have I fulfilled the criterion to 
meet with him? 
I feel the rage of failure 
Troubling my mind 

The anxiety alone has killed 
my spirit 
Oh what a sinking feeling 
Placed upon us by this world 
So much filled with destructive 
mechanism 

Oh,how can I break free from 
this shackles that bind me 
That threatens my 
future,destiny and eternity 

The ladies are no more 
coverng their pride and dignity 
Moral decadence has 
increased 

How can I break free from these 
ties that bind me 

Through putting on the whole 
armour of God 
To count me worthy when he 
comes
