Just Before Death

By isa

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Footsteps in the distance And headed my way They're not turning back it seems I cannot run away So I turn to all the wrong places So I find love in all the wrong places At leastI can hear when death is at my door And stare it down 'til it walks out my door It's coming back, I hear it now It's pace is seamingly increasing And I can't find my faith this time Cuz it's got this hate it is releasing I gotta pray for my life this time I've hid it all, so I can't find it Have to find myslef so deep inside I think I hit my heart beside it I pray to God to help me live In the name of the father and the holy spirit God will help me find my lost life An angel is singing, now I can hear it!
