The Light... I See it.

By xPainfulTears

                                                                 "Our Father...
                                                           ...who art in Heaven..."
                                                         I prayed silently to myself
                                                        as I realized where I lay.
                                                                  I'm in hell...
                                                                     Aren't I?
                                                                        No...
                                                               I'm in his hands
                                                        while they clench my neck.
                                                                 I can't breathe.
                                                                 "Just kill me!"
                                                                I tried to shout...
                                            all that came out was a painful whisper.
                                                                I looked into his eyes.
                                                      They belonged to the man I love.
                                                               Tears fall from my eyes
                                            as I realize how close death is becoming.
                                                                I closed my eyes...
                                                                    ready to go.
                                                        Suddenly... I was numb.
                                                       With my eyes still closed,
                                                                 I reached out...
                                      and took hold of a warm hand that illuminated
                                            bright, red light through my closed eyes.
                                      I walked foward as this man comfortingly said;
                                                         "Come my child. You are free"

    I wonder how our society would be different if the concept of God as a female were more dominant. Anyway, your work is great.Keep at it!
