A Person Can Believe (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(in answer to Daniel Hugo)

A person can believe whatever you want to in a world full of darkness
and miss the Bible's principles of God,
or find that fundamentally it is the utter truth,
you can think that no God or even the devil do exist
and through all of this go on purposeless through life
or even admonish others wherever you come,
where every human in his own being do only know sin,
we can help others to loose the way or lead them to God,
we can live like gods or admit our own humanity,
while violence and murder and robbery devours everything that is beautiful
in the grey-land we can find ourselves between black and white
but only from God we can find salvation
when destiny and Satan do beat down our highest ideals,
daily we can go on a crusade against the darkness.
