The Forgotten Trust

O Human, hear me.

 

Erase the pain that fills this world—

the sorrow threaded through its days.

You have caused it. Set us free.

 

You have become as demons,

forging chains around your souls,

binding yourselves to dust and ruin

until nothing remains but cinders.

You have caused it. Set us free.

 

The chains that hold you keep you

in a fire of your own making—

captive in a realm consumed

by hatred and despair.

You have caused it. Set us free.

 

I know this place was never meant

to become what it has become:

a wasteland of darkness,

twisted and torn from its purpose.

This is the very fate the angels feared

when they asked concerning Adam:

\"Will You place on earth one who spreads

corruption and sheds blood?\"

 

Yet God declared:

\"Indeed, I am placing upon the earth a vicegerent.\"

 

I know this world was entrusted

to Adam and his children—

to nurture, protect, and bring forth good.

You have caused it. Set us free.

 

Dear Human,

I long for peace. I long for love.

The path to both lies

in the trust bestowed upon you,

in the divine purpose

for which you were created.

 

How have you forgotten

the strength God granted you,

the wisdom breathed into your being,

the mercy planted in your heart?

 

Now this world has become a place

of torment and suffering—

where cruelty walks openly

and despair fills every breath.

You have caused it. Set us free.

 

Dear Human,

lead your heart toward the light.

Awaken your soul from its sleep

of heedlessness.

Remember who you are.

 

The earth waits. Creation waits.

The future waits.

And beyond all sorrow,

God waits for you—

at Heaven\'s gate.
