The years have been long

The years have been long

A Poem by Rubein Geterminah
"

Death is seen as mankind mortal enemy for the separation he brings in love among mankind. But the untruth doctrine of the rapture is seen wipe out of a mature adult- the speaker in this poem.

"
The years have been long
Since you told me to stop my wrongs
And take the path of salvation
Doing everything in privation
I haven't glance of you since departure
That can't capture
To that echoless shore
Or you don't care about my yore?
Your absences sprouting green
Grass on this mound not your home
As I whip, they blossom between
Us, what does this mean? You won't come?

The years have been long
Since I stop my song
But now sing I must
To remove anything term dust
From corrupting you. I'm bored by the untrue
Doubt of childhood told by you
'That if someone does, it's only for a sleep'.
For from sun rise to set, I creep
For your great rapture from this mound
But seem you won't remove the bound.

Author's Note

Rubein Geterminah
The general believe of death by Christians is that, 'it's only for a sleep.. And then we will rapture'. Such christuanic doctrine passed from the mother to the child is seen u realistic by the prolong ness of the dead to rapture.

Death brings separation between us and our loved ones.
Such is seen in this poem as the speaker experiences the loneliness and untrueness of the rapture as thought by many Christians.
