Road to Paradise


In the blink of an eye

the world came to an end

grabbing only a jacket

could not find a friend


Walking along

seeing a remnant of the past

memories flooded within him

how long will the pain last


The night seemed eternal

as the moon and mountains meet

winter of the soul

where demons greet


A light appears

a road to a new place

illuminating an opening

a portal to a world of grace


Fear turns to excitement

willing leaving a world of vice

a door to Eden

the eternal paradise


Stepping into the light

a smile emerges on his face

hearing the voice of forgiveness

a moment of grace


After he enters

the portal closes the gate

the world left behind

an abandoned estate
