When the Darkness Rules

a poem by Benna Rao Goli

When darkness rules our hearts, confusion sets in
And our hearts tumble down from within;
This is the time our emotions bleed
And Satan starts to sow his seed.

This is the time our hearts wander in doubt,
We don’t know what’s happening all about;
As a result we become lazy louts
And forget all the ins and outs.

We feel a sense of fear and dread
As we nod to all Satan said;
The floodgate opens, problems pour in
And they become a part with much chagrin.

We should now pay heed to His voice
And realize this is the only choice;
Let’s give ourselves to the King of Kings
He fills in the light and grants needed things.
