My Role

The breath of life within my soul, I must, you see, fullfill my role.
At my birth, the kiss of death. The end begins. I'm never whole.

I can't escape this destiny! My mortal shell was pledged to death!
My role I'll play up to the end, to be complete with my last breath.

Because there's no alternative, and I really have no choice,
I must assume my role in faith. I don't think I can rejoice.

There is a silver lining, though, but really hard to see.
If I dedicate myself...my time...my energy,

I will have done what I can do to shine my light so bright.
Replacing darkness in my world with the glory of my light!
