Darkened Caverns
by David Pekrul Darkened caverns cannot scare me, nor can shadows in my mind, I no longer live with hauntings of the things I left behind, I quit running from the serpent and the demons at my door, Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew before. Darkened caverns are the small things that I used to think were large, I quit running from the mem'ry of the times they were in charge, And the fear that used to haunt me is the fear I now ignore, Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew before. Darkened caverns cannot hurt me; they are just an empty shell, Though I once thought they would lead me to the very brink of Hell, Now I laugh and scorn the darkness, for my God has barred the door, Darkened caverns are reminders of the things I knew before. Darkened caverns are behind me; lighted hallways are ahead, I no longer see my failures; I see only God instead, For His Word has lit my footsteps as He shows me what's in store, Darkened caverns, distant mem'ries of the things I knew before. by David Ronald Bruce Pekrul www.myhiddenvoice.com The poetry of David Ronald Bruce Pekrul If this article is used in any publication, please send a copy of the publication to David Pekrul at 170 Carr Cres.
