In His Image 11/18/2005 5:24:13 AM
A room full of idiots;
the light came on-
Suddenly I realized-
I was alone
When I looked in the mirror;
and nothingness looked back-
The room started spinning-
and all went black-
Nightmares; Dreams of horror;
no reflection did I see-
I could only ask-
is this the end for me?
There were demons and dogs;
snarling out of spite-
I tried clawing my way out-
back into the night
Each time I'd reach the top;
I'd slip and fall down-
And the voice of reason-
would echo and drown
A room full of idiots;
the light came on-
Suddenly I realized-
I was alone
Thus a shallow grave;
I was now in-
And the dirt I swallowed-
was filth;slime n sin
I pleaded for mercy;
I pleaded for grace-
I prayed for deliverance-
and rest from the chase
Tired and confused;
I questioned; I raged;
I screamed out His name-
from this cold dark cage
Then silence overtook me;
no breath could I hear-
I couldn't move-
I was paralyzed with fear
Then out of nowhere;
a hand reached in-
Wiped off my cheeks-
and warmed me within-
I began to question;
Where have you been?
Why did you leave me?
in the demon's den?
I never left you;
and you weren't lost-
Don't you remember?
My Son paid the cost
His blood was shed-
for your sins and theirs-
And I'll never forsake thee-
For I am everywhere
I looked in the mirror;
and there did I see-
The reflection of Him-
looking back at me
