The Untitled Journey

The Untitled Journey

I walked down the road of heaven
Calm and dark, I think it’s seven.
For the angels shine bright above
I felt calm, the feeling of love.

I continued my journey now.
I saw something glow I asked, “How?”
A beautiful morning star
Illuminating from afar!

I felt mesmerized; I said, “Wow!”
I saw God’s precious gift, now.
I rushed towards the chosen path
That leads me to a lone gray shaft.

Then I came to purgatory
A road made of man’s own story.
I saw the road made of marble
With written words ever stable.

The surroundings are gray and bleak
But the star from afar I seek.
I reached a winding, crimson bridge.
That hangs above a flaming ridge.

I near the end of my journey
The pass of hell, a true tourney;
True, I said a simple prayer.
“Protect me from the betrayer…”

Now I took a cautious step
As I prayed with every breath;
I saw the evil around me
Nearing me with hatred and glee

I shut my eyes and prayed a psalm
For the star, I offered this hymn.
“Protect me now, o bright angel
For I am now yours sweet damsel”

I came through the begotten pass!
The star before me now at last!
The simple star now on my lap
Brings me warmth, God’s heavenly tap!

I stood up and looked behind me
And remembered this long journey;
A grand stairwell emerged behind
Beautiful calls, in my mind.

I climbed on the steps of heaven;
I sang hymns until eleven.
With the star by me, I see you.
That it was you, how sweet and true.
