Scary Moments

There are times when, faced with the shadows I realize the need to kneel on all fours To ask for redemption, for salvation Why for even a ray of liberation Only God can save my soul None other than Him can bring it to a stall The might of the devil, the dark forces Those agents giving humanity no choices! They showed themselves to me once, Scared, I got lost in their dark trance Scared at the sight of bright eyes Staring at me as if wishing to shower on me, cruelties! I was made to see the dark side of existence Faced with them I lost all my stance How ugly were they those little men, how disgusting So ugly that they deserve not any describing! Having no hands, no teeth and no heads, On human hearts, they allow themselves to be fed Cold blooded and frightening They are beyond any imagining! Scary moments, what is unreal for some people Are for me that which can make me tremble Yet, the merciful hand of God cures everything, With one swipe of the hand, he had me, once more, in joyful living! Scary moments, I wish not to relive them again For they bring me not any gain nor any pain But they can rob me of my stability Fear is indeed a thing to be kept away from abidingly!
