Like chaff,
Mans life is blown away
Blown with the wind
To an unknown place
Like wax
Mans life melts away
Melted with each wax
Melted away
Like evening
Darkness sets on the souls of men
And lingers on forever
Complete darkness'
Life like sands
Sands of time
You write in it and
with time
It fades away
What you write becomes invisible
With time
Life ....
Life.....
When it's time to fade away!
Life like a book
Written page after page
Chapter to chapter
Then the end!
Life like a movie
You act out your script every day
Then one day
The movie;
No more parts
You are just done acting
Your movie is done
The end...
Chilly
Cruel
It ends !
'So teach us to number our days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom (Psalm 90:12 ).
Last night I learned that it takes longer to take your first breath than the last one. One minute you can hear somebody talk through the door asking for food, another minute water and he begs for it so much, the next second he shuts his eyes and lips. He lays still.
Those medics looked at me and told me he was gone. Whilst I watched them do nothing when he was about to go.
Even in that state,
they kept telling me
He will be okay.
Where okay probably meant; 'Okay in another world' not this one..
I'm still in shock.
Sleep deprived
Loss of appetite
Traumatised
My heart is bleeding .
Chilly and cruel.
I can't even write.
I cannot see the sun from where I sit but I know that this too shall pass.
People keep asking me if I led him to confess Christ. I regret not doing that. I just didn't think he would die. I had so much faith in God that he would let him live. Now I'm burdened because at least he could still talk despite the pain. We had a good conversation. Reminding him about this God we serve and how he heals. Yet I forgot the most important, confessing Christ.
ReplyDeleteI can't sleep
ReplyDeleteI can't eat
I'm just scared
I went to church but guess only my body went to church
My mind was still at the hospital
Replaying the events of Friday night
My worst nightmare
Hmmmmm
