Dark Spirits
August 15, 2014
hey walk among us
although they can’t be seen
that does not mean they are not there
they hide in our houses
in our yards
anywhere where they can watch us
they lurk from afar
entwining themselves into our lives by letting
us live in fear
fear is the warrior’s greatest weapon
they come to children
pretending to be an imaginary friend
they manipulate
they pretend
soon they take over
possess
scare
this is why we need faith.
