A bitter pill given takes away my breath
Inherited nature leads me to my death
Every moment lived drives me to my fate.
A hopeless void engulfs my vacant heart
As fear wells up consuming every part
And deep inside my heart cries out forlorn.
Somehow I know there is an answer
A rescue from the trap of life’s cancer
A cry of hope in my desperation.
Your blood poured out for my redemption
Deaths reign now ended by your resurrection
The sting of death eternally made obsolete.
Hope now fills my heart as I realize
That my mortal body will one day rise
And death will have no more hold on me.
Mametz
I like the 'bitter pill' image and your rhyming scheme here. From death to life - all wrapped up in an elegant poem!
