darkness rises

darkness rises

A Poem by Ahmad Cox

darkness rises

Darkness rises
When we least expect it
Darkness rises
It can feel like a cloak
Heavy and cold
Choking us
Smothering
Choking out the light
It can feel like
The light has gone out for good
You can start to wonder if you will ever
Feel that light again
If you will ever feel that peace
It can be easy
To lose faith
To wonder if God even cares
If he has forsaken you
You must endure
The darkness never lasts forever
Joy and light
Are waiting in the morning

Darkness is apart of life, and yes it can overcome you. If you are a person of faith that is one way to find the light. I do believe. And in my darkest times, I have never lost my faith in God, but in myself.
This is a very optimistic write and although it is dark it does shed light and new beginnings.
Again thank you for sharing :)
