Darkness Turned To Light

Darkness Turned to Light
By: Angela Christine Freeman

Dedicated to: Amondo Michael Cole


There is NO reason to worry about me leaving you. 
Without you what would I do? 
No one else knows how to be true. 
They all leave me feeling blue. 
None of them have a clue who I am, where I am from, or what I’m about. 
They use their human minds to plot against me no doubt. Human beings think with their hormones. 
They all act like they have thrones. 
They think they can rule over and manipulate me. 
One day soon they all will see. 
I am going to finally be free. 
Thanks to you, I have caught glimpses of some light. 
That’s a good sign for a soul that’s black as night. 
Without you things just don’t seem right. 
I have had it with Satan’s ****...I’m ready to fight. 
However, I have become very weak. 
When he wants into my world all he has to do is sneak. 
He is a shady son of a *****. 
I worshipped him and became a black witch. 
Now my soul is black as pitch. 
On you I’ll have to hitch...a ride that’ll take me far away. 
Take me to a better day. 
Then everything will be ok. 
You are my soulmate and I love you so. 
I can feel myself dying and I don’t want to go. 
I don’t want to leave you here to find another. 
Will you love her more and tell me it’s over? 
Will you ruin my heaven because you chose someone else. 
I’ll know in the end...I’ll be able to tell. 
If you don’t come and find me, I’ll be in limbo. 
There’ll be no love for me and nowhere to go. 
I’ll be trapped in space all alone. 
It will hit me hard that you are gone. 
I’ll wonder what I did wrong. 
You’ll be singing a new song. 
It’ll be over in an instant...it won’t take long. 
All the love and care I put into you. 
I always thought your love was true. 
Then you’ll leave and tell me we’re through. 
What am I supposed to do? 
If that happens, it will be a darkness to which nothing else can compare. 
I won’t have any hope left...I won’t have any care. 
I love seeing you everywhere. 
In my thoughts, my heart, and my soul...you’re always there. Please don’t ever let me go. 
I am going to die young...this much you know. 
Your light needs to grow. 
In my soul...you need to show... 
Show me how to live and get it right...
so that my darkness can be turned to light. 

Amondo Michael Cole, you are the most amazingly wonderful “man” I have ever met in my life. We have special aspects to our relationship that no one else can understand and it’s not really for them to understand. As long as you and I understand and we can walk hand in hand back towards the place and time that we come from, we’ll be fine.
