Beside me
at all times. Unseen
by the naked eye.
Amid the sun, amid stars, forever
after the truths our souls hold.
Between light and dark, I am.
Below the heavens,
Above the heat of hell,
Against all odds, I stand
With God forever in my heart

My Creative Writing teacher let us write whatever kind of poem we wanted...I thought it was going one way but then that was the outcome...I think this is, so far, my most favorite poem that I have written. :)

&quot;I will no longer pray on my knees, to a god who&#039;s left me so many times. I will no longer pray on my knees, to a god who won&#039;t answer my call.&quot;
