Forever Freed

As I closed my eyes, I saw a beautiful figure come down from the sky.

He held my hand tight and began to lift me away
Leaving my dying, pleading body behind
Along with the rest of my people

The last tear to be shed made its way down my pale, lifeless face
A sense of relief and warmth replaced that darkness in my soul

As I was lifted into the light that i had always seen in this previous month of disease
But is was just out of reach.

I am free
The fight is over
The pain is forever gone
