Eternity

Deckard
as the Sun set on that day
so many years ago
tears welled from swollen eyes
come much too early
and burned like fire against this child's heart
it's aftermath
a lifetime of growing anger
and distrust
unseen scar that overtook a once joyous soul 

I know ever more clearly
as each year passes
those that snuffed the light of hope on that day
guided by greed and hate 
and threatened by 
harbingers of peace
look at them grin in their victory
slithering in their lust for war and power
sacrificing their own humanity
cowards everyone
but I will find you
the minute my heart ceases I will find you all 
for your undoing is in your failure to recognize
that your souls
your rotted, putrid souls shall live forever
shall face the penalties of your actions
before God and his true children

I have lived with the knowledge that I will face you in death
as will those whose dreams you turned to nightmares
we know you
we have always seen clearly through the lie 
we will forever haunt your bastard souls
there is no escape
from eternity
