The world we live in is a dark and dismal place.
When you look out your window you will see dark figures almost like shadows.
The shadows have no souls. No breath. And continue to walk.
Unlike you, the shadows feel no emotions and show none too.
Can there be light? No.
The light has died out. It’s a blackout.
The world is dark and full of mistakes.
Maybe this is sign; maybe God does not love anymore.
Who is to blame for this dark and dismal place?
