    Poem Commentary

    For if one is found in Christ he is found a new creature, for the old is removed , you have passed from darkness in to light from death in to eternal life.

    In with the new.

    There was I time I remember
    before the sky turned black
    I ran with the sun in my face
    the wind at my back

    but then in the twinkling of the eye my blue sky fell and shaddered
    like all my happy dreams and washed away down the drain
    like it never even mattered

    I sunk down on my knees in shock of the disater and curled up to hide my face, my world spiining even faster
    then there grew with in my a dark and evil thing, and I knew from that moment that i'd never be the same

    the monster grew inside me, and then the beast did roar
    in equality with the agony as I fell to the floor
    I hung to the stone ledge my body quaked with fever
    my head like a recored echoed the voice of the disever

    Then suddenly at the peak of all the confusion, a gentle voice called out to me and showed me an illusion. I saw there in my mind a picture of a man standing with out streched arms and nail prints in each hand.
    and suddenly the light came back and the monster slowly withered
    until there was nothing left but a little fearful quiver

    I saw my dreams unfolding each piece like brand new, and then the clouds were parted and the sun light did shine through
    I stood up on my feet again my eyes locked on the sky
    a smile sketched on my mouth and a tear in my eye

    for all things had past away,
    the old was lead away
    and standing proudly in its place was something completely new.

    Very deep write... all of us has a dark side that the devil loves to toy with... as much as we try to supress the human in us caves in... all we can do is pray for strength that the anger turns away... I enjoyed reading another great testimony from you.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
