Trials and Consequences

Cold, an outcast, I've made myself,
For the sake of others, I choose to help.
Watching, waiting, not a sound,
Above in sky or on silent ground.
Never resting, though tired I am,
I choose to stay and watch the land.
Friends and family are now far gone,
And yet, I still keep on and on.
Refusing to lose, never giving up hope,
I watch and pray 'till the end of my rope.
Try to forgive all my mistakes,
Even those whose lives they take.
I wish for all of this to end,
So I may go and join my friends.
But darkness still creeps near and near,
Threatening me, though I do not fear.
I stand and fight, hope and pray,
That I may join you all someday.
But this is it, the final step,
Darkness closes; my last breath.
I tried and tried, but could not win,
Now drowning fast in all my sin.
I deeply regret all the wrongs I've done,
Though darkness now has gone and won.
I beg for God to hear my plea,
Crying now, and on my knees.
Had he heard them before? It seemed not so,
But now I see and now I know.
He was here all along and heard me pray,
And now he comes to save the day.
I thought I could do it by myself,
But I was wrong, I needed help.
Now I'm home in my rightful place,
With God in my heart and a smile on my face.
