In the End

In the end, when truth reveals itself When all the words that ever were Arranged in every way that can ever be When we have said everything When nothing more can ever be said Will that bring us the promised peace When Heaven launched its war on evil And split the universe in two And gave to man the sword of death And gave to him his righteous hand When Heaven failed to banish demons But gave them their own kingdom too Can words so wise erase that blunder Or does man perish in the lies written 07.13.2016

man will never perish but will live on and on. Just what I believe. How he lives on is argued by many many groups!! I really enjoyed this.
