This Light

This light! Why do I forget it's there, When it's here, And everywhere I stare? How come after I fall and incur guilt, I see this light like a moon, In all the darkness of my filth? One ray will save me, And my day, It will keep me from sinning again. If I am darkness, like the darkness of space, God is like to the moon. Doesn't that mean deception is everywhere, And false prophets are in bloom, That even a rainbow is a tomb?
