Live after death

Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)



I
Sputtered
And Swooning
Hardly a sound...
Life now gone
In reverse
Demons
Now
Entertaining them at home in my brain...
I couldn't resist the urge was to strong...
They held me tight
Jealously
Control
Us
With
Lovers
Deception
A price to pay.
More, more, never enough, take me please...
They had me in their grip, my soul to take...
Now it is time
Compromise
Do what
Ever.
No!
I am
Back again:
Life after death.
Jesus.
King of kings
And Lord of lords.
He will raise the dead to life, trust in him.
