DARK AS THE MIDNIGHT


 

Our lives are marred with change,

And this shall follow us until death

Like the waters that drift with time,

The scars left upon our face,

The scald is now in its place

Some may find this a little strange

Simplicity eludes the rat race

Words given in a whispered breath

If quietness can only find ones mind.

 

In the midst of life we hear fatal cries,

Sadness, cutting like the butchers knife,

Pain, hides like the night

With little care and seldom strife

All of this we try to cover.

But the truth is reveled in our eyes.

These shadows seem to be brief,

Surely time will give us relief,

Tomorrow will somehow be bright,

And yesterday’s filled with delight.

Our worries will soon be over.

 

The darkness will always return.

Our spirits will dreadfully yearn

For truths hidden deep in our soul

Searching the universe above,

For the one that gave us our birth-

And this is the only thing we need to know:

“For God is the answer to all we love

And this shall be till the end of the earth!”
