Life Of The Lights

Life Of The Lights

A Poem by Gilbert Saint
"

Heard someone singing they live a life in the "light", so I decided to let them know what my version of "light" is all about.

"








Life of The Lights.

They said they live a life of the lights, but I’m better off, because I serve the owner of light.

These are not words of pride, neither are they of delight. This is the speech that makes constitutions right, the water that flows further than insight.

Ultimate poetry, the gift so many search for day and night.

 

They say they live a life of the lights.

Full of pleasure, cars, drinks, everything that shines and blitz.

I live a life in the light, full of blessings that come in bits; theirs is a life that shatters Christ’s beliefs, mine is a journey that ends in joy eternity.

They say they live a life of the light.

I wonder why they roam the streets stealing souls at night.

I wonder whether their perception of light is bright, or is it filled of metal, that will waste away with rust and blight.

When will they adjust their mentality to fit the original design?

Till when will they live in a dream of prosperity? When will they wake up and join us in Christ’s reality?

I live a life in the light.

He who died, with the Father, made me right.

He gave me life, the chance to write these rhymes, in this tempest of times.

Even as many follow the supposed life of the lights,

I hold my ground.

Ultimate poetry,

Only He, can raise us to life in the lights.
