Eternity To Endure Poem by Brian Kilpatrick

My voice reverberates
From heavens throne to hells firm gate
Courage hid love denied
Something to do with damaged pride
From my mouth to your ears
What a long journey for my words
Years to late and seasons gone
Oh how my mind lingers on

Like drugs to an addict or drink to a drunk
To hells gate I have sunk
And risen again to heavens height
With false hopes that I might
Speak to the fight of no fight at all
To loose when I haven’t risen at all
Oh how I mark the time that passes
Not by moon or seasons passes

But from marks of words that were never spoken
From a dream without a hope
Cut so deep to never to heal
No scars to form or wounds to heal
For I have run from lives true battle
From stage fright I have lost the battle
Open sores never to heal
Loves true voice who did steal

From dungeons hid so deep
Who the dungeon did keep
Keys to yonder cell well hid
No heavenly lights to reveal
Prayers prayed but not revealed
Answers are always part of the deal
Listen closely to words unspoken
For from God’s throne he has spoken

For of love’s salve he does dispense
And it is always heaven sent
Love that waits is love revealed
Even when words are hid
It is he that shines the light
Where it shines through darkest night
For his
For his heavenly balm


Is always dispensed
With heavenly palm
Who can understand heavenly time
With hands that click so true
When hands click for you
Love potion with no cure
But eternity to endure
