A slight shaving of inspiration
A small amount of sheer dedication.
Mountains of glittering gold fill your eyes;
Stronger than the sun’s light, there is no disguise.
Fields of desperation, heal their ancient wounds;
A godly figure has emerged, from our worldly ruins.
Do you see what you have done? Crucified upon this land,
I look up at the cross, and once again, alone I stand.
I smile, as I look straight up, wiping their spit from my face.
And their failed attempts at humiliation, them being the only disgraced.
I stand for the one, who’s already given me his life.
This everlasting salvation; it must come with a price.
If I give Him only my current everything, as he’d once done for me;
Then he will take away my blindness, and beauty will I see.
And I pray for my murderers, upon my dying breath.
My hands folded, beneath my head, and I mutter the rest.
Into an everlasting light, I will eventually ascend;
For my Lord is waiting for me, just around the bend.
