Sometimes
the darkness
seems to last forever,
the light
never showing
never breaking
never there to be.
Sometimes
the prayers
seem to be lost,
never being heard
never answered
never spoken.
Sometimes
I do know
to kneel down
to pray,
never asking twice
never doubting
never questioning his presence.
Sometimes
the world
does stop spinning,
the light
never quivering
never leaving
never betraying.
Sometimes
the darkness
doesn't seem to last forever
the light
always shinning
always lifting
always there.
