My Future

gerrylegister



I want to see the changes
that lies beyond these doors,
to the gate of future ages
and see what heaven has in store.

Slowly, I am letting go
Of this temporal earthly illusion,
Finding the reasons to know,
why time possesses my season.

I think about my future
What destiny has to offer?
I want to know more than before
I go as a lamb to the slaughter.

In life, I want to find out
which galaxy has the realm of peace,
Which stars define, being complete,
And which light will never cease?

I want to hear the omnipotent God
A voice, that has power over my life,
being a shelter and the rearguard,
taking away misery and strife.

In today's closure, I surrender,
and leave to others what I have now,
to find the moment that will last forever
and be exactly sure that I know.

How the changes will happen,
when I want to laugh, I cry instead.
The sad pain only gets deeper within
That very moment my eyes are blessed.

Tears rained down my face
I wish I could hold on a little more,
but my number has been replaced
and the angel has come to close the door.

When I closed my eyes
stars are circling that lucid moment,
I forgot the light changed to darkness,
the only beautiful thing has peaceful intent.

I am thinking about my future
And the rewards that are to come,
When my breath is no longer here,
By then, my journey will be done.
