The Darkness Poem by kathryn madonna

Soon it will be dark
As the sun falls
Up lifts my heart
When the moon does rise
Stars fill the night sky
My soul does not lie
Although my body may sigh
'tis almost certain one day it will die
But my spirit has been touched by fire
This will land me higher
Cement for me a ground
Where I may land
And I damn no man
But you damn me
When you refuse to see
The lord dwelling within me
For 'tis he you turn away
'tis he you sun
'tis he you accuse of being undone
'tis he you mock
'tis he you lock out
And when you look into my eyes
Witness there the tears I weep
Know that they seep
From the heart
That which my Lord is apart
