Out Lurking

There's demons out lurking,
The night terrors start.
With God's wrath upon them,
They'll quickly depart.

Alone in the darkness, 
Shines only moon light,
The people are sleeping, 
Not one soul in sight.

There's demons out lurking,
They're haunting our dreams.
While tossing and turning,
Only God hears the screams.

The evil surrounds us,
With each passing day. 
There's nowhere to turn, 
So God makes a way.

There's demons out lurking, 
Please don't be afraid.
We all have our Saviour, 
By our side he has stayed. 

Jesus is waiting,
Just call out his name. 
Forgiveness awaits you,
Our God's still the same.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
