Who art thou?

I am, he from whom the light doth shine
You are nothing if you aren't mine
I am the giver and the taker of life
You are receiver, the creature time

I am , The creator of the clock
I know no end while your life must stop
I am, the lord of foolish flock
Who go astray and surrender to my clock

I am, the voice of one in the wilderness
Weeping For great is my faithfulness
I am the lamb slain for his cleanliness
The lion who is sacrificed for his greatness

I am, He who offers true love
He who suffers for the recipients thereof
I am he, looking down from above
Grieving for the traitors of my love

I am he with the covenant of blood

The sacrifice of red, an oath of bloodshed
But the flesh that was broken was my own
The recipients of love now sit on my throne

I am he who is risen from the dead
Slain from the foundations of the earth
He who lost his life but never had a birth
He who lives again but not on this earth

Well, well...I'm left a little breathless after that.
Such power in every line, emotive but not forced at all.
I'm almost jealous...how many times have a attempted this topic and ended abruptly in disgust of my meager efforts?
Stunning piece. I can't even manage to pin down my favorite part.
Well looking forward to reading more from you.

Love how you arranged your words. They are painting a scene most dark but artistic.

[KAREN]

Strong and powerful, nicely penned.

[Michael of Gilead]

You've got some interesting things here, some not so much, forced rhymes at times

Some editing needs to be done.

This is amazing and full of the strength and conviction of being the "I am" to whomever you touch... I think it's wonderful..xx
