Scream of the Banshee

It seems as if time is frozen,

All that's left are the chosen

They look swiftly into the forest,

And look back as the rain is in torrents

They leave what was once their home,

Now they are free to roam

They are led by their need

To truly be freed,

And when they take to the air,

Their loved ones are aware

Of what they have done

To no longer be one

To no longer be bound by chains

They must sacrifice what lies in their veins

They are finally set free

By the screeching banshee

Although they know deep down,

That what they have done is to no abound

They continue to screech

Until they no longer lie within reach,

And when they testify,

No one helps them rectify,

And when they plead,

None will heed

To their screams

Or their made up dreams

When all else fails

They no longer wail,

And when they reach the crimson tide,

They no longer abide

They find reckoning in their sleep

As they ascend very deep

Into the churning waves

As they find their graves,

And finally they are locked away

In permanent slumber until that day

That they will rise again,

And purge the world of its sin

They will make the strong weep,

And make the dead leap

And until the day of coming

All bodies will be reforming

To their standards they will shape

And new bodies will they make

And no longer helpless will they be

As the world becomes a Red Sea
