It.
Is.
Over.
Nothing.
Left.
Life.
Ruined.
Heart.
Destroyed.
Charred remains.
Barren terrain.
Wasteland lain.
It.
Is.
Over.
Face.
Down.
In.
Emptiness.
Filthy.
Ashes.
Charred remains.
Barren terrain.
Wasteland lain.
Where.
Is.
God?
Your.
Healing?
Right.
Winning?
Truth.
Triumphant?
Charred remains.
Bare terrain.
Wasteland lain.
Just.
A.
Breath.
Light.
Shallow.
Faint.
Totally.
Unseen.
Movement.
Embers glow.
Life grows.
Heart knows.
Down.
Not.
Defeated.
Buried.
Alive.
God.
Stronger.
Satan.
Lies.
Embers glow.
Life grows.
Heart knows.
You’re.
Not.
Forsaken.
Close.
Eyes.
Open.
Heart.
You.
Survive.
Embers glow.
Life grows.
Heart knows.
God.
Is.
There.
Here.
Present.
Counted.
Unwavering.
No.
Surrender.
Hope arrives.
Despair dies.
Changed lives.
God.
Is.
Everlasting.
He’s
Never-ending.
Always.
Was.
Always.
Be.
Hope arrived.
Despair died.
Life changed.
