run, run, run
run to the hills
hide, hide, hide
hide and be still

the reaper is furious in his seek
with grim darkness, wishing to wreak
hiding doesn't mean that you're meek
rush into the caves, the body is weak

hope, hope, hope
hope to be alive
hide, hide, hide
hide to survive

mighty death is in its wings
bells of your end it rings
your neck wanting to wring
the noose is just a string

run, run, run
run away from here
go, go, go
go away from here

As I read this, am I correct in my feeling that this is about when the Anti-Christ is released and the children of Israel will have to hide?

Victoria, Thanks for coming by...

Isis, I just read the lyrics of the Jim Morrison song and found out immediately what I had missed listening to.. I have listened to many songs from THE DOORS but somehow missed out on this one... thanks for pointing me to it and yes there seems to be a distant similarity and thanks... glad that you enjoyed this one...

Janie, I just checked upon that one with a few of my friends and they also seem to agree with you opinion in a way.. they said this sounds "black" a hint of "the beast" etc... but surprisingly I had not intended this to be that way... well, if that it is in one form of interpretation, so be it... I am glad to have a piece work open for different interpretations... thanks for reading and also for your interpretation...

deepak, Thanks a great deal... glad you liked it...

regards to all,
sudhir

Running, running running
Hiding now away
don't want him to catch me
Sorry I can't stay
Great poem

Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,

Your Welcome Sudhir!!  'Not To Touch The Earth' by the Doors is one of my favs of theirs.  A faint similarity yes!!  I can also see the beast theory in their too!!
Namaste my friend,
Isis
