I'm walking through a darkened hall
to the light ahead
My footsteps echo and I look around
Wow I must be dead!
There's no one else around
I'm stuck here all alone
wondering did I drown?
or burn alive?
really who would know
I'm coming closer to the light
The darkness fades away
my shadow hits the wall behind me
nothings in my way
I have reached the light
and standing there
are Gods outstretched arms
he beckons me into the warmth
I hesitate for a moment
and think of what Ive left behind
But then I turn and leave this world of hate
I stepped into his arms
light as I have ever felt
the emptiness and pain
ran swiftly from my heart
I close my eyes and sigh
a happy little tune
Life has left me there
in Gods arms for ever
cold and limp is my body
but my soul rejoices
as people raise their voices
and lift me to my heavenly rest

WOW!
This is really good I love how you play with darkness but then you have a twist of light.
Its great.
My fave part is:I'm coming closer to the light
The darkness fades away
my shadow hits the wall behind me
nothings in my way
I love it, Pure perfection.
