He knew that time was coming, his mind and his heart was
prepared
He was ready to do something, that only a few would have
dared
He prayed for that moment, when his life mattered the most
That mirror he carried for the past 2 years, would soon
carry his ghost
He laid down, tired… torn… weary… and scorned
Looking back over his life and realized, there will be many
to mourn
Many things have been done to his spirit, to get him to this
point
Actually happy about this day, he states “I’M UP OUT THIS
JOINT”
His head lifts up, looking towards the sky, slowly going
back, and back, and back
All of a sudden, everything is in slow motion, there was one
person bracing, and the other was performing the act.
From the first sin, which was the time of his birth, to the
day before his last mile
All of these things rushed in his mind, dang he had been in
sin for a while
He never said goodbye to his homies, his family, his
friends, nor anyone of utter importance
This was something he knew he had coming, and it was inevitable
that he would be here with no utterance
His head finally felt something hit, but he had not yet been
released to his destination
Fear started to set in, and he was slightly paralyed, but this was his obligation
Why were there still thoughts being processed, I thought at
impact this would all be done
Why aren’t I at my final destination, God and I should be
one
Instead there was only a liner that has been peeled off and
left behind
A part of him had been laid to rest, then a part of him was carefully defined
You see, a man like this had done some things, and he
figured this was the only way to make it right
This was the only way he knew to get out of that life, and he did not put up a fight.
The Kingdom of God has won a new soul, washed and cleansed
from his dirt and mess
He had accepted to be delivered, being washed by the blood
of Christ, anyone that makes it that far is blessed
There was a death to
a sinner being performed to a man, right before my eyes
He came out of the water, refreshed, a new man, on a new
path, for he had just been baptized....
