Searing red light
Bursts beneath tight lids
Teeth grinding and jaw clenched tight
Tears somehow stream into sight
They follow the tracks of the red light
Which continue to push through
Though I continue to fight
Time has not end, Not sure it has a beginning
Just one moment lasting an infinity
My reality. My pain.
I break under the strain
Sleep is a blessing. A dream is a bonus.
Something to look forward to. An escape to the cosmos
The time is coming for me to pass
I continue to fight. I fear the Beast will outlast
His claws digging in deeper, tearing my flesh
Must think positive, It is time to refresh
Instead of climbing up the mountain, I need to slide down
Forced to walk through the valley of death
I still have hope I will be found
I crawl through the gardens to nourish myself
Asking the earth to replenish my health
I drink from the spring, God’s healing waters
I am a lamb, I am His daughter

Embrace the Light, the one up ahead
It will lift me up and away from death
Take me over the mountain high
And kill the Beast, making him stop
Anoint me with Angels tears
Washing away my pain and fear
Taking me inside of the fold
That I may replenish, and refresh my soul
Dear God I pray for a healing hand
For mankind and the diseased land
Kill the beast, take him away
That no more lives end in this way
