Poems about life today and God

Living in a world devoid of truth,
That is slowly breaking down.
Where are the believers?

Hiding,
In fear
of the darkness,
that attempts to bind them.
Their light fades into the shadows
As their life force slowly drains out.

The light can always penetrate,
the deepest of pits.
When the shadows try to destroy them,
They turn the other way.
The star cannot be dimmed.

Praise be to God,
For their fountain of strength,
To break those chains,
And walk through the valley
Undefeated.
