A graveyard walk

walks through graveyards 

in the mid dark night

not a soul around

wondering what the light will have for me next

its pitch black 

all you can see are the graves and the path you walk

moonlight creeps in from behind the trees

theres a soul here

a soul like no others

I can feel it

one step after another I start to ponder

ponder about certain people

ponder about what they actually bring into this world

I don’t need me or anyone else to bring any new light into my life

it will come on its own

each grave I see is like a new face

a face that I will never remember when I’m older

but there will always be that one face that sticks out from all the others

a face that will bring light into your life with them not even trying

that light I will accept

and with that light I will cherish 

but I’ve come to a stop directly in my path

moonlight reflecting off of the graves giving my path more light

theres a man standing 20 feet in front of me

this overwhelming feeling arose from my feet to my chest in a matter of seconds

left me speechless

I could die right there and be absolutely fine with it

but in the next few seconds of us staring at each other I realized something

I’ve come face to face with my cold dead faith
