Out of DarknessA Poem by Nathenial C. BurchallPlight-the escapeThe cute notice of my shadow the start Cascading breezes night twill soon be here Unsettled thoughts of the day on my heart Like my shadow they are small dabs of fear
My shadow now bright against the soft moon light The breezes have now turned to their chill My thoughts race as fear turns to fright Clouds now hide the moon its darker still
There is no more cute shadow nor seeing my medow All around me and within is but the dark Long is the night I long for my shadow I wait and wonder sitting as blood awaits the shark
Alas my shadow is back as morning raises Soft light from the sun's dawn Clouds still abound withholding the days prizes Like my mind my face still holds it's frown
Thoughts can be blacker then the deepest night Despair more painful then the bull wip Simple notions that can hold you so tight Makes for no escape that darkness, I'm in it's grip
There is hope in this plight to be sure The promise of no more then you can bare An uppertunity just may be that open door Prayer is the strongest weapon for the sincere
