Absence

We are all murderers,

we are all criminals,

we are all killers,

we are all thieves,

we are all innocent,

we are all guilty;

we are all dying,

in this place

there is no redemption,

no forgiveness,

no hope;

without You,

there are no answers.

Some realities exist beyond

the distant horizon looming

before our limited eyes,

some truths are bigger

than the capabilities

of our simple minds

to comprehend,

some questions

are better left unasked;

somewhere there is light,

somewhere there is forgiveness,

somewhere there is hope;

somewhere there is You.
