Armageddon Silver Tightrope
I close my eyes to the worldly skies
I leave behind the day
And deep within me, I shall begin
to chase my thoughts away
As loved ones hold me to their sides
Their strength flows into me
To cast me out of sorrow's blindness
into eternity
I thought I heard them softly calling
The voices of the spheres
As light years flash forever
falling away from waking fears
I reach out, try to touch the passing
of beings bathed in light
But they just smile, their eyes not asking
to see beyond their sight
I thought I saw the candle bearers
on their way to the beyond
Beckon to me from the future
To come and join their throng
I stepped upon the silver tightrope
Balancing beliefs
And wings unfurling with a new hope
I left behind my grief
