Despair

Despair

A city in turmoil as hope evades
Joy destroyed as hate engaged
Five brave now laid with hates rain
A world in decay as it waits His reign

Evil both seen and hidden from view
Families sundered as attacks renew
Civility cast aside as if were wicker
As creation awaits her true Victor

Lust and rage in defeat lash out
Trying in vain to drive His image out
But days are short as Host prepares
The King soon returns, to evil’s despair
