~Deliverance~

I stand alone in silence;
in the solitude that has
become my existence.
As if on the edge of
Eternity, the path behind
me has been forsaken....

There is no remembrance
of it. There is only the perishing
embers of the memories that are
buried in the catacombs of my
soul....

I look ahead; my eyes are without
sight. Pure instinctual emotion
warns me of the chasm of
emptiness that awaits....

The Penumbra of the Lonely
desperation of my Heart.
The echoing chants of the
sea of endless souls that
chose to walk this path
before me....

My life flows before me
like a River of tears, Visions
of dreams, hopes, illusions;
silent prayers that ascended
only to remain unanswered....

The Fear takes my breath
away. The Darkness is upon
me; the Mighty Hunter that
stalks my path....

Is He like the others before
Him who only followed the
sweet scent of my tears to
seek only the ecstasy of my
blood?

To Share in the
Sin of my Desire
only to leave my
Spirit further lost and
broken along the way....

He dares to tread on
Sacred Ground, coming for
me in my Darkest hour.
Has he come to further
scorn the Vestiges of
my soul?

Or...

Is His the voice that calls
to me from beyond the
Abyss?

Has He too Traveled on
the Winds of Eternity,
always searching,
having awaited this moment
a lifetime, seeking?

Deliverance...
