I Never Knew You! Poem by Lagaya Evans

Total darkness of the soul
So within yourself, you can't see
The light that you're blessed with now
Will someday cease to be

You think you have the answers
And they don't include God
The same will be on judgment day
When he says, I know ye not!

Someday you'll lift your eyes
In a place of torment and pain
Brother against brother
In a place of grief and shame

You'll cry out, Why?
Why didn't someone tell me about you?
And he will say with authority
I sent many to show my love through

Someday you'll call on the name of the Lord
And time will be too late
You'll realize what a fool
For you alone have sealed your fate

A feeling of great despair
Grips hold as he questions who?
Depart from me forever
For I never knew you!
