Eternal Reality (FadingGenes) Wk - 6

Eternal Reality

Every prayer uttered, echoes within the walls of my mind

Time and time again; reverberating in the deep confines

Ethereal your countenance, imperial your form

Remedial your touch, within it brings a storm

Negate my reality, nihilate my being,

Alas you're eternal, all-knowing, all-seeing

Life saps and ails me, my soul is a-creeping; seeping

Remembrance is key; a root in the ground

Etched far as can see, is the reality of thee

And at long last it comes, the realisation all around

Like waves crashing at the shore, a cruel mercy in sight

In grains of sand, and mountains alike

The last ray of hope; vast and boundless

You appear; the eternal reality always around us
