Before Death

A plea for salvation...

Overshadowed by death, one wonders why,
Salvation seems so very far away.
Disarrayed by realities that lie
Among those who cannot avoid the sway.


Lead me out of passions and desires past,
Outside the gate of my own loathing mind;
Where the world’s rotation is much too fast
And time has been nothing except unkind.


Into your loving mercy my heart flees,
Forgiveness found for a soul in havoc.
A loving joy beyond all that one sees
Conforms the spirit of this maverick.


Do not let this be my very last breath
Hell’s beckoning upon my blackened death.

I knew my husband Tom's death was coming since Feb 07 and he died in Aug 07. Had COPD and nothing the doctors could do. He was schizophrenic and did not realize he was dying day by day with his cigarettes. It was hard to see him go downhill, but the day he died he said minutes before, It is just a touch of sinus. I knew otherwise with his breathing so shallow. I lost him but not in spirit that he left with me by the grace of God.
