Just Pretend
Close your eyes
& just pretend
Pretend there is
No death
No Physical end
To life as it is
No purpose
For anything
All is just about
What you can see
& touch for now
No hope
If you can believe
This
Then your enemy
Has accomplished
His goal
to cover your eyes
with his deceit
he can even persuade
You to believe
Or feel that even he
Does not exist
There is no great evil
In this world
We are okay
As we are
If this had been
The truth
There would have
Been no use
Or need
For a man to die
On a cross
Heaven sent
Puts a different bent
On our ages old story
To believe in a glory
Temporarily unseen
By human eyes
Someday will rip
Open the skies
Return in full power
Unknown may be
The day or hour
But Christ’s words
Promise it clearly
& for sure!
