The Devils Domain
God is not here…
In the midst of mans’ wicked deeds,
acts of violence that precedes,
unspeakable cruelty, it succeeds.
God is not here…
Trekking through blood and gore
the mindless brutality
of a godless horde.
God is not here…
Grasping my churchless faith,
battling the immorality of this place,
I Clamor for the means to escape.
God is not here…
My plea’s fall on deaf ears,
unspoken prayers full of fear,
are silent in this frontier.
God is not here…
An unnatural silence tonight,
a foreboding ignites,
signal fight or flight.
God is not here…
Evil has drawn near,
It whispers in my ear;
a living darkness that breads fear.
God is not here…
I regroup and close my eyes
Inner peace begins to rise
my faith is surmised.
God is not here…
He...he is within me; his disguise…

To have so many things hidden from the world, and only to us they exsist. Great form of monotheism for only seeing one GOD and not the fallen as one. As always a work of art. CLAP CLAP

Love the concept of "spirituality is within". The "God is not here..." phrase really kept reading till the end. Great format and flow.

HE is not silent; we aren't listening...
I like your worldview! And your writing.

You, Soul; are absolutly right. I am a soldier, so I speak from where I have been and seen. In the midst of such carnage and evil you forget or fail to see goodness and grace. God is not in any particular place he is always within us no matter where we are if we have faith.Thank you so much for reading this and forgive me if it was too raw.
