God made darkness

It creeps to you when their is no light;
It will come to you; filling you with fight..
Not to know the unknown;
Your terror is one made of your own. 

You can not hide no matter how hard to try;
For you can not focus from either eye. 
To can try to hide in your bed;
Pulling the covers over your head. 

This thing that traps us everyday;
Their is no stoping it as you pray. 
You are helpless the wraith that it bring;
The wind that howls as it may sing. 

You hope that you can make it thru;
Trying everything that you can do. 
Lock your door, hide in a corner;
The death comes to you not as a foreigner. 

Only to make it a few hours away;
Just to make it thru another day. 
For it is darkness that you fear the best;
God made darkness do light can rest. 

Yet, it keeps you wide awake;
You pray for your soul he may take. 
Why be happy in the dreamy night;
When it just fills you with deathly fright. 

Having those nightmares that leave you scared to death;
Your heart races leaving you out of breath. 
Why should welcome that causes us pain?
To destroy, to shiver, driving us insane. 

For every time that night falls;
As satans words that he calls. 
Feeling all alone by yourself
Never opening the bible on your shelf. 

It may be what you believe in;
If darkness kills you; it justs begin. 
God made darkness do light can sleep;
Leaving you there not to fall asleep.
