A man of like Passions

Sitting under a broom tree,

Hands and head, on bended knee

My task is done,

The man does weep

Death threats is why I had to flee

Alone, so alone, what must I do?

To get back my faith, now below zero

His words of woe, is heard by the One,

In whom this man had placed his faith on

How soon did he forget the awesome deed?

In the name of the One who heard his plea.

The sacrifice on the alter,  which with fire consumed

By the true Living One, His existence never confused


Am I not alone? In all this he cries,

The answer is "Oh No!

There are others who for me is willing to even die"

I release you my child,

You have run the race,

Fought the good fight,

With an abundance of faith 

it's time to come home, 

No sorrow, no tears, 

Nor doubts, nor fears

A place of rest, 

With Life eternal, 

You deserve the very best. 

Neela Gunatilleke.
