When Darkness Reigns
We were created to follow the Light;
thru a kingdom much like a dream;
birth was a journey thru endless night;
where evil’s control remained unseen.
Earth was the destination of banishment;
a personal prison; devoid of chains;
evil was in charge of its management;
a kingdom where darkness reigns.
Darkness prevailed, both day and night;
the serpent remained on his throne;
only the righteous could see the Light;
and sought out the way to go home.
But Darkness spread throughout the land;
seeking out those of like mind;
earth was the kingdom the serpent planned;
evil, by him, was designed.
First, the serpent meant to kill the young;
preferably, before they were born;
then, he attempted to destroy all good done;
with the perjury; he would suborn.
To conquer all peoples that resided within;
he sought to divide; and tear them apart;
this was only where his evil would begin;
eventually, he would tear out their heart.
The serpent; disguised as a being of light;
set himself up on his permanent throne;
engulfing his subjects in darkest night;
saving all the wealth, for him, alone.
When darkness reigns; below on earth;
he allows no talk of a kingdom, above;
many don’t know Eden was their birth;
and may never again, know God’s love.
