On the darkest of nights
When no moon or star is there to give solace
You will awake
There will be voices everywhere
People are scared
Running, shouting, and crying can be heard everywhere
What is going on where are we?
Then a man runs into view chased after by many others
"Give me! You stole from me that day!" one of them shouts
"But I love you mom" the man replies and they are gone from sight
Massive creatures flow across the broken grasping demon like beings and flinging them to the ground.
A shriek reveals a smoke being flow into the air only to be whipped back down by the rope of the creatures with wings.

But where am I? Where am I going?
Then just then a man runs by me with a smile on his face
"Oh Beloved, Oh Messenger of God! You man come with me to that gathering." and off he runs.
I turn and run after him not sure if he will disappear from my sight

Then I see them
The Beloved sits by the banks of water more beautiful than anyone I have ever seen
He is all light and all of those around bear some of it.
And by His side, His family giving the thirsty cups to drink
The man I had followed is already through the crowd and embraces the Prophet with the biggest of hugs
He is given to drink and takes his seat

I run and stumble,
Trip and fall
Stop and consider that I may not be possible for me to make it
But then He stops
And looks right at me and smiles
And hear Him even though He is so far away
"You're almost there, just a little more."
So I stand up and continue running
Nothing can stand between me now
Because I am not running for the water nor the light
It is the cup bearer that has taken my heart
And He is my only end.
