Mortality - Satan

Watching as the brakes

Fail on my existence

Leaving control somewhere

Back in the distance

Rushing feeling

Sense of falling

Will my feet ever touch the ground

Something took me with no warning

I know not why or to where I’m bound

Mortality

Living the life of a fly

Hurtling headlong over the ocean

Can’t seem to arrest

This perpetual motion

Suddenly flying

More than falling

But no sense of direction

Something pulls me to my calling

Like a spirit to ascension

Mortality

Gone in the blink of a cosmic eye

Faster and faster the candle burns low

The accelerated flame

Is the soonest to go

The boy child who wept when he first

Learned of death

His father’s words stayed with him

Till his last breath

A man looks to the heavens

Father can you hear?

Please help me to understand

Why am I here

Mortality

Conscious of life speeding by

Mortality

Make a choice slow down or die

Slow down or die

Slow down or die

In the blink of an eye

Slow down or die

Mortality
