i saw The Light.
i didn't realize I was in the dark, then,
i saw The Light.
The Light came unto me, but i could not understand.
i saw The Light.
The Light said "I Am", but I knew not who it was.
i saw The Light.
i didn't recognize The Light, The Light's face i could not see.
The Light recognized me.
i saw The Light.
The Light put on flesh and dwelt among us.
where The Light is from is where The Light returned.
i saw The Light.
The Light lit The Fire that went throughout us.
i saw The Light.
although The Light has gone home,
The Fire goes on.
i love The Light.


The author's comments:
I am a christian, and I'm glad to say so. I hope that this poem will show that. I also hope that the poem will be a method of effectively sharing the gospel. This poem is inspired by John 1-3.
The grammar errors in this poem were done intentionally to portray how weak we are without God and how nothing is accomplished by him, which is why only words that make an allegory to His Name are capitilized.
