Work Text:
Fear not my child for I am with you.
And so I did what you wanted me to.
I never even asked what to fear,
Trusting that in the presence of evil I'd have you near.
I followed blind every request one gave me in your name.
Not a single doubt to your greatness as order after order came.
I faced all demons of this world I knew,
Not once hesitating to die for you.
Because how could death be filled with harms
If it's said to be a paradise in your open arms?
I know I'm not supposed to question,
So please forgive me for this silent confession.
I do fear death for what I know,
That is that I have no idea where the angels go.
Where to go when we die one day?
Is it heaven, hell, purgatory or someplace else to stay?
Father, I know why we are ought not to question.
Because you're not there to give any suggestion.
You left us. Your soldiers, your guardians, your children.
Forced us to use something none of us was given.
-J.E.
