An Intense Pain

After the demise of the wretch
A strange sensation comes over me
Until that moment
I'd only guided souls to their rest
What have I done?
This is not my purpose
A rebirth in the parish
Is not destined to murder

But I am no longer a man
Bound by man's laws.
Suddenly, a bright light
An intense pain

My sight remains
But my eyes are gone
A booming voice alludes to
A supernatural presence beyond
"Thou shalt not kill"
