In Darkness

In darkness,
he came to me,
he told me the
sadness of his heart.
In the darkness,
he was small
and his breath came
soft and short like
he was holding in
horrible thoughts.
Then in that darkness,
he grew very still,
very quiet,
then he spoke.
He told me there was no God.
I might have been hurt,
but I already knew.
There was no God
for those who were
born to see Evil.
and those were the ones who
needed Him most.
