• Falling asleep in my dreams,
    I see with eyes sewed shut.
    Crawling through the passage of time,
    I reach for Lady Luck.
    She grabs my hand & pulls me forth,
    into the light of day.
    & through my eyes I see survivors,
    That scream & cry in Pain.

    Bones lie broken, splinters of hearts,
    Pierced into the ground.
    Water & Fire purge this place,
    & suddenly there's no sound.

    The warrior stands with his sword,
    firmly in his hand.
    On his face stream tears of many,
    that once lived this land.
    He looks ahead & places me into his line of sight.
    Piercing eyes frame his face,
    with color black as night.

    He begins to walk forward,
    emotions rolling off his skin.
    His movement graceful yet Barbaric,
    that it lures me in.
    he speaks softly to me,
    angelic features showing.
    His words seep into my mind,
    with demonic thoughts a flowing.

    Images flicker past me,
    Famine, disease, evil entities.
    Alongside them flashing,
    Paradise, Sanctuary, Holy Deities.

    This premonition passes,
    and mind & sight return.
    He cuts my stitches open,
    to the light that burns.

    Agony & Grief,
    expand across his face.
    Sadness tells me of his decision,
    that he has to make.

    Strong hands lift & touch my putrid flesh,
    & he whispers words of Safety,
    Promising me Rest.

    Pain hits my stomach,
    & numbness starts to slither.
    My hands touch the metal,
    that's cold,jagged, and bitter.

    Eye sight fades,
    My legs go weak,
    & slowly I descend.
    He catches me,
    lays me down,
    & softly murmurs...
    The End.
