In the darkness
My thoughts assume strange shapes
The inner workings of other’s minds
Invisible to me
I imagine filled with attacks on me
I need to find the light of day
On any morning
And pray to God a lot to change my view
From dark to light
Are not there angels around more than demons
In this life?
I do not know why I just assume
Disaster is waiting around every corner
And the boogie man
Is out to get me
It must be just a part
Of the tortured mindscape
I inhabit at times
Too filled with doom and gloom
To allow any room
For a more positive view
So when my guidance says
Read January 17
And I open the page
To see the words :
Seeing A Situation Differently
I open my eyes and mind and heart to the message
I could pray for guidance to see things more
Through Love than Fear
Through hope and trust
Instead of assumed disappointment
All because my soul in some mixed up way
Is trying to keep me safe from harm
Why also shut out the chance of Joy
Of something so different
To what my fearful mind projects
On current circumstance
We stand in light In the light this will look different.
