Why are we blinded by the darkness instead of the light?

Why do we fumble around like
we are without any sight?
Too afraid to go towards the
truth of light
Stuck within the lie of
darkness, and all those other
unnecessary plights
Caught up within a realm that
we know could never be right
But, instead we denies the
love of God's eternal light

We suffer so terribly at our
own hands, now it's time for
a brand new change
Another day without living the
same
Praying so hard, yet calling
God's name

Asking for forgiveness and
repenting of our sins, being
renewed with God as our friend

Author notes

Being renewed in faith and learning that God has always desired to be our friend is so incredible and beautiful that it's beyond the comprehension of the mortal mind.

Please tell me what you think

    Your poetry and author notes says it all!! Excellent job!

  • Wonderfully Refreshing!!!

    Hello, Darryl - I love your thoughtful poem, and I am really glad I clicked here tonight (or should I say, this morning). At the risk of seemingly being too critical, I'd like to just briefly mention two things: 1) In the first stanza, line 10 - should the word used be spelled "denied" or "deny" rather than what you have there now, and 2) In the second stanza, line 3 - the word "an" may need to be edited to use the word "a" (just some thoughts). Anyway, you have a remarkable gift and I wish you all the best. Thank you for sharing your beautiful poem with all of us!!! Take care. Peace, Cyn

    Very inspiring and insightful. So much wisdom in so few words and yet somehow we stuggle to listen. I love the part about suffering at our hands and still resist the light. I think many readers will relate to your message do to the style in which it is conveyed. Thanks for sharing, Rhon

    truly amazing, so simple and simply put
    but true as God is real. I wish I could put things as plainly as this when the situation arises. But sadly I don't

    Beautiful poem, sincere and flowing. A couple of things could be changed. "But instead we deny the love..." instead of what you have up there. Terribely is actually spelled, "Terribly." and i think you also meant "a brand new change" instead of "an brand new change" great poem though, i really liked the way that you phrased everything, great write!
