Image for the poem The heavens

The heavens

Left in the darkness of the world to fend for my sanity the crows picked at my flesh.
" oh lord hear me"
Mumbling prayers recitiding scriptures from the bible my heart prayed aloud my skin tingled as the grass folded under my frame. The sun pierced my eyes and sweat flooded my face, lips chapped, tooth chipped and tongue busted...I replay the accident slipping slowly into unconsciousness a small voice like breeze that cooled the earth and leaves on the trees
" hold on"
I managed to fight the sleep...it darkened now leaving the stars and moon as lights as I took the last breath and managed to scream
" LORD! Have mercy on me" tears flowed to my ears unto the dirt...I became breathless, my breathing became slow...steady...short eyes became heavy and shut I felt my body became cold and ridged...
I felt a peaceful light hovering over me as angels with harps mellowing my soul. My body which was lifeless and cold floated lightly.
It was all white cloud like as he stood before me and said " my child I heard your crys felt your pain so I rescued you...I will always be with you" he started to disappear as I drifted away from him my eyes closed.
As I opened my eyes I looked around I noticed my wife and my son sitting by my bedside praying and as I sat up they rejoiced crys with praises to god.
All I know is I will never be the same.
