NOT TOO LONG
I struggled for something to say,
Yes is not that easy,
Everything is scrambling,
Many a heart grows sour,
Day after day,
They live without mercy.

My eyes have seen it all,
My heart bears the pains,
My eyes is growing dimmed,
My longings seems so long,
My words sounds fainting,
Everything is tumbling.

I am going breathless,
I am broken and torn,
I stare and gaze afar,
I could see a world full of evil,
It is written in the perfect book,
'Mankind is wicked',
I see this and my tears has failed
To run dry.

I looked in the skies,
Pains and miseries is all I see,
Mankind is indeed in trouble,
Some are full of lies,
Some are full of mischief,
Some are full of disguise,
Some are full of scorn,
Hate and violence just increases.

My soul is trembling,
Cascaded with untold fear,
I can feel mans wickedness,
The weak souls are crying,
Their oppressors and tormentors,
All around appears pleasing,
Do they even care?
Their heart is seared,
Evil is all they know.

Many are full of fear,
Mine eyes have seen it all,
Monsters in human clothing,
They feel strong and mighty,
They oppress and ******,
Lo, their doom is sure,
Perhaps not too long,
Liberation is blowing in the air.

My soul even in its fears,
Can feel the signs of Joy,
Can feel salvation drawing nigh,
Can feel the sound of the trumpet,
That glorious appearing,
Of Him who's name is true,
The Son of mercy,
The bringer of peace and freedom,
Even so I cry out aloud,
Oh come quickly.
