Transfiguration
Is death
really to be feared?
Does death
speak the last word?
Without pushing far a reflection,
the last word is from God's Son.
You, being a son,
or daughter of God then,
you speak the last one.
Is death to cause a scare,
or push us towards overcautiousness?
Even though it's not rare,
death hasn't the last words,
you know it, though not aware?
It should be understood,
not as a terminator of life,
but as a passage to God,
who stands as true Life,
where joy and not strife,
laden all who it ruled.
It is transfiguration,
in fact, a change for better.
And so I should say as a christian,
"I'm not afraid of death bitter,
because I know I will be risen,
by Him who promised life."
"Eloi, Eloi!" we cry,
a feeling of aloneness.
yet, He's there as we cry,
to cry with us and wipe our tears.
He's God with us, saviour!
Deo Gratias!
