In the end, there is no end.
It was finished for eternity.
There is no end
Mortality to Immortality
It is finished
And eternity is for all
Some will live forever
Some will die forever

Sometimes the urge to sleep is overwhelming
To close my eyes and rest in peace To have no cares or tears or fears Sometimes the urge to sleep is devastating But along with pains and trepidations I’ll miss the love and joy and care I stay awake and alert with eyes open Sometimes I trudge Sometimes I walk Sometimes I run Sometimes I fly I don’t know why I hoped
I had resigned myself That gift I always wished for Once again for someone else I don’t know why I hoped Could it be for me Could it be mine But no right now it’s hers I can’t have it I don’t know why I hoped So I make myself understand I have to feign I don’t want it I have to affect I’m happier without it I don’t know why I hoped My heart breaks once again And so morose I trod the road
Wondering where it led Wandering this life and lost My burden such a heavy load My sadness kept it fed Oh could I afford the cost The price that was foretold But it was for me He bled On that lovely cross So with joy I run the road To home is where it led Soaring and no longer lost I’m happy And I’m free A poem by Donna Campbell If I seem like I’m in another place I am, I have no scars, anxieties, or material cares In my dream my genuine smile brings love and joy I live in the separate world of my own inner space And pain is also absent but all friends and love disappear I’m terrified that this imaginary life could be destroyed I’m dreaming of a different me with a better face I know the false blue sky can’t answer my prayers It can’t grant me beauty like that of Helen of Troy Oh Lord, His truth crashes this imperfect façade These scars are earned and make me stronger His love envelops me and changes my heart In His goodness and tenderness I am awed He gives me hope and maybe I can hold on longer But He says “Let go we will never ever part” He answers, He gives, He loves, Oh my God! In Him, my Lord there is nothing He won’t conquer I’m awake and more beautiful than any piece of art Always too afraid to lose. How often do I wonder? How often do I muse? Would my heart be torn asunder, If I gave love a chance? Is it better to have lost, Than not to have romance? I now live with the cost. My heart was broken anyway. Lonely longing left it shattered. This is the price I pay. I am forlorn and tattered. The trumpet sounds long and loud The Horn of Salvation descends on a cloud The ones called righteous lifted up Joining the Bridegroom in splendid sup The lost thrown down into fire Joining the defeated chief liar What part to play in finding them What part to take in guiding them Pointing them from dark to light Guiding them to peace from fight We are the glory of the Lord We are the vessels of the Word As He the Most High exalts So He forgives all faults To Him be all praise and glory We live to reveal His story I went to your house Your home is so lovely filled with love, peace, and joy I expected to hear your wonderful laugh I hoped to feel your warm embrace But you weren’t there I sat in the pew Tears ran down my face I looked at the box in front of the church your picture, your smile, and the flowers But you weren’t there Words and songs rose for you Prayers were uttered for those who love you But you weren’t there Your memory fills my mind I know you’re not there You went to your lovely Home filled with Love, Peace, and Joy I’ll see you again one day I’ll hear your laugh I’ll feel your warm hug You are there |
