Second Chance.

Kneeling down on this stone floor.

I know I have been here before.

The lights are dim with in my soul.

The light within me is more empty than full.

The air is crisp, cold, and lacking heat.

Despite the flames beside my feet.

The tall shadow bears down upon me.

In his eyes, is my death I see.

Relief fills me up, more than before.

He'll kill me and I wont feel this pain anymore.

The chains rattle slightly as he pulls them free.

This wasn't how I wanted him to save me.

He holds the keys in his hand.

While gesturing for me to stand.

He leads me out and into the sun.

"Careful." He says, "Your second chance has begun."

Time, for me, has turned the table.

A second chance is all I'm able.
