Passing beyond this earthly domain towards a new dawning for the fortunate few.
Time having been spent in earth and dust but now awaiting the old order to pass and all things be made new.
We make this journey alone….always alone….
There remains the fear of being forgotten- a fear of trusting and looking out through hooded eyes
towards a future unknown, no longer blinded by material things.
Remembrance slipping away, as we crave to enter a majestic realm where hope and renewal
embalms a weakened spirit…
In silence awaiting judgement, pleading from within a once earthly capricious mind- yet now soberingly in awe.
Will the lies of the past envelope me and fade? or will they be emblazoned on the golden doors for all to see and judge?
Will the faces of the souls I have crushed ruthlessly underfoot, appear before me…screaming retribution?
Fear of Hell enfolds my shivering soul..I console myself with thoughts that my lifetime walk through the darkness will help me find my way through the passages of hell,
But piteous longing persists for the brilliance of enlightenment to lead me to a luminous sanctuary,
a brilliance that only Gods spirit can provide- a light that absorbs all the satanic darkness enfolding every new soul breathed into life.
I remember then the blessed words ‘Thy kingdom come'
And I wait….I fear…..I trust.
