Jinxed Deceased

He couldn't feel himself no more
pain in his heart yet can't relate
so many things going wrong
and he doesn't know
he's been jinxed with no tangible reason
he was a believer, a target of the heathen
His brilliance faded as the dusk before the night
His perceptions of life were now from a seated position
His travels were now through astral projections...
Talked about all the dreams he wanted to achieve
Trusted in God in whom he believed
Yet struggled with the affliction that plagued his existence...

He continued trusting, hoping and believing that things would change
Night after night he dreamed of encounters with demons, dark spirits, apparitions...

At a point things did change, for the better
But, twas for a short while
He was running out of time
He foresaw the impending doom but never expressed fear
He didn't want his loved ones to feel a greater scare
Death was preparing to take him away
After years of battle he had to let it have victory to take him with that scary stare

He died in a way peaceful
Really left a reason for all to be mournful
On second thought he left reasons for all to be joyful
And lead a life like his, careful

A story of a departed brother whose life was, is and will forever cause that quake in a heart when thoughts of his demise set in, and, joyful thoughts that will make all lead a good life like he did.
