Shadow Lingered

The shadow that lingered
             Promises to pass
The anticipation soon covers
A heart that was darkened
                With all hope smothered
Echoes of nothing lingering
There is only silence and quiet
           And we wait to harken
For the trumpet's call
Where after we rise
And enters the warrior messiah
All who looked become enthralled
For he is beautiful
His eyes are cosmic jewels
His strength is present
And none but fools
Dare oppose him
And with his arrival
I am content
That the evil that threatens
Will be tamed
Killed and damned
With a gesture of his hand
All sorrow is banished
And the grieving made whole
As the kingdom welcomes home
Her children
