Darkness Has Forgotten

A pain like an avalanche it overtakes your heart!
sin

Breathless. Motionless. Thoughtless.

less

Less because your lungs are designed to breathe life but your current existence is glaciered in

sin

Cold like a polar ice cap
         crowned at the very tip of your mountain top
               you can no longer see the light

Blinded. Darkness has forgotten that light has come

When a heart feels tortured and held in captivity
          you awaken and don’t rise, smothered in yourself – forgotten

When the elderly live life lost among the living
          and serpents shed their scales only to be mistaken for angels – forgotten

Darkness

When children create immoral, abominable, villainous acts instead of creating visions and dreams

When evil becomes a synonym for good

          “like God” becomes an obsolete portion of a metaphor

When you no longer meet under the cloak of darkness to dip strength from water among the stars
          nor turn ancient white pages sprinkled with blood stained ink

Oh darkness, you have forgotten that light has come

Your body no longer curves into a bend that forces you to become an altar for his praise

Fog exchanged panes with the sun, covering her horizon

         but his brilliance escapes by freedoms wind to move the unremembered gloom

See, darkness had forgotten that light has come

        Did YOU remember to be the LIGHT?
