Resting in peace

by Unrequited   Jul 13, 2005


Waiting, watching
praying for the mercy that only He can provide
i grow tired, i grow weak
the end is near, and i have nowhere to run
to hide is to be a coward
to wait for what you deserve is to have faith that you have done good and will soon rest in peace
the Ever-Forgiving One holds out his hand
and this is my only chance to grab hold
for i am finally able to leave this place
my secrets gone, no more answers do i hold
for He has taken me from all i have known
i pass through darkness, where spyders live on
feasting on the flesh of all who were cruel,
all that were without faith and the ability to feel compassion and know the truth
they get what they deserve
as the spyders devour their bodies

and yet i move on
for the Triune One continues to pull me
He pulls me past all whom i've loved
all whom i have know and have yet to meet
soon i am blind and can only see Him
the one who has taken me from my family, my friends
i feel nothing, yet i still feel everything that is pure
how long will this feeling last?
i have been told it will never end

the one who raised me, she is here
finally we are reunited
so long it has been, yet i feel she has never left me
all the time that i felt alone
she was the beat of my heart
she was always there for me

i pray for those that did not make it
the ones that now digest in the bellies of arachnids
the ones that have love their faith

i pray for those who remain flesh and bone
living each minute of each day
i hope they keep their beliefs, while spreading them to all who are without them
i pray so they may all join me one day

i am now at peace
sitting in the clouds
alongside my loving guardian
and the one who created us all

Do not worry, do not lose faith
for soon your day will come
