Under His Sacred Tree

Under his sacred tree he sat
With tears in his eyes 
Tired of fleeing away
Scared of being a part 
of this cruelty

Under his sacred tree he sat
Asking god to take him away
To forgive his sins 
To spare his soul 

Under his sacred tree he sat 
Looking around him
 with despair
Feeling the darkness in his blood reign 

Under his sacred tree he sat 
With his eyes closed
Thinking of his life 
as a huge mistake
Wondering why god
is permitting this world 
to torment his weary heart 
Wondering when will his painful tears dry
Wondering when will this vain world cease

Then in front of him 
he saw the bright face 
That relieved his pain
and moderated his agony

with a tear crawling on his face,
with smile drawn on his  face 
he died 

under his sacred tree
he died …
