In The Valley Of The Shadow Of Death

In the valley of the shadow of death.
That is where I stand.
Stand in the dark of the menacing mountains.
Mountains of Anguish.
Mountains of murderous rage.
Some where in the light of god I left my soul.
Now all hollowed out I stand waiting.
Is it possible to feel with no soul?
My eyes see clear through the darkness.
All who stand here stand with truth.
Truth in bitterness.
True with out faith.
Lost faith.
Where has it all gone?
So I might forgive all whom have sinned against me.
May just because I may not stay long enough to take my vengeance.
Or is it the reason that I have no more room in my mind to hold a grudge.
Will I take it with me hidden in my hearts box?
Like a peice of coal received on Christmas.
Can find my Soul again.
Find redemption in the light.
Or will I stand for ever waiting in the valley of the shadow of death.
Waiting as if in limbo.
In limbo forever.
Damned.
Neither heaven nor hell wanting for my tainted carcass.
Do I need his love?
Will my messiah save my dying soul?
With all my blind faith be rewarded.
Or will I be punished because it was lost some where.
Some where in a cruel world that wasn't made for me.
I should have stayed in the moon.
Lonely yes.
Painful maybe.
Yet nothing to the pain found on earth.
Life with out pain.
Everlasting life for my offering of a suffer filled life.
I don't think so.
So I will just stand her alone waiting in the valley of the shadow of
death.
