The Darkness Within
I looked the devil in the eyes.
It was nowhere else to be found
but within myself.
How am I different from the evil I see outside
when I carry hate or bitterness inside?
The roots of evil
we carry within.
Who is responsible for rising above this,
other than myself?
In surrender and humility,
I allowed the Light of Presence
to shine through me
into the darkness within,
returning me to Peace.
Through Presence.
We cannot deal with the darkness without
without first meeting the darkness within.
Kneel before God.
Ask for guidance.
Nothing comes close
to this surrender,
this humility.
