The Dream

There was a time, when I was young,
though its been many a year;
I remember this dream; I saw a man,
it filled my heart with fear.
Those woeful sighs and urgent cries,
I tried to shield my ears;
He was sinking into a fearful pit,
while I dreadingly drew near.
There was no friend to help him,
I looked everywhere.
To the world he was unnoticed,
they didn't even care.
Smoke and heat came from the pit,
and moans out echoed too.
I shuttered at such misery,
didn't know what to do.
I could not move to give him aid,
no matter how I tried.
He lost his hold, and began to go,
as I looked him in the eye.
In horror then, recognition came,
oh' it was me I saw.
I was that man, he was I,
a breath I couldn't draw.
I awoke in shock, slid off the bed,
cried to the Lord above:
"Save me Lord, have mercy Lord,
with your redeaming love"
A sweet calmness overcame me,
the horror left me too;
I came to love that dream - from God,
Could it be help for you?

| Seems some peace was needed.......I think we all have that from time to time.......whether it be with our selves, or something that was close to us. |

Lionel, I think most of us come to this point at some time in our lives. I am there now. I need God to save me because I cannot save myself. Hopefully he will answer me too.
