In the Dark

In the dark of the night,

I begin to feel

That no one cares.

There is no answer

To my pleas,

And it seems

No one to hold

My hand.

I am ignored

When I call for help

Or reach out

To try to help others.

Is there any person

Who will care for me?

It seems sometimes

Only God is there!

In the dark of the night

I find myself wondering.

In the light of day,

I remember

That there are always

Folks who care.
