Lullaby

Look down, children
on these old hands rests
the fate of a million people
Look up, children
on this withered brow rests
the decisions of a million lifetimes
Look inward, children
on this broken soul rests
the truth that will set you free
the love that belittles all others
Shining brighter than all the stars in the heavens
is the bright hope the future brings
Burning blacker than all the black holes in the depths
is the black death the future holds
Look away, children
when He comes to take me
Look away, children
when He stabs my heart
Look away, children
when your mother's great strength founders
at the mercy of her dead love
Remember,
Look forward, children
where I'll be waiting
Look forward, children
where love brightly dwells
Look forward, children
where peace will come to you
And when you see all that I love perish,
my children,
rendered by the one I love.
Stare hard, my children
and fight harder
love harder
be stronger
but never hate
only love
pray for the souls of those who persecute you
carry the crosses of the meek but for a little while\
and remember

these old hands
this withered brow
this broken soul

of your young mother
know the truth
and live it.
