New Walk
I am standing in a ray of light.
With darkness only a few feet around me.
Afraid to move in any direction.
Because the darkness will envelop me.
I hear and see the darkness calling me.
Promising me hapiness,pleasures,and riches.
Beyond my wildest dreams.
I can feel all the evil lurking there.
The sadness,loneliness,and even death.
I stand there feeling deep inside my heart.
Knowing within myself which way to go.
Straight ahead where the light travels.
I take my first step forward.
The voices of evil start to disappear.
Its always there in the distant darkness.
Calling and tempting me.
I know I am on the right path at last.
Sometimes along the way.
I can pick out a few lost and lonely people.
Join me in my new walk!
