Dear God

Dear God...
Please hear me out one last time,
Just living in this hell feels like a crime.
I've had enough of this world and of things it hides within,
Every breath I take here feels like a sin.

Dear God,
We grow up learning about love,justice and peace then why?
The real life examples of these words are so limited, why?
Why is it that every minute the clock ticks by,
A girl gets raped and silently cry!
A millionare's son runs to the gym to get rid of obesity,
Whilst a child is being tormented by hunger in the very same city.
Somewhere an entire town is teared apart in tiny bits,
Whose fault it is? No one bothers,no one admits.
The father leaves and the young mother is rejected and despised,
But she doesn't complain,coz with faith she has compromised!
A small business closes down as the owner's loan was rejected,
Because to the bank,he had to prove he didn't really need it.
Bloodshed in the name of racism,is this how you created earthlings to be?
I don't want to be human if this is what humanity is supposed to be!

Dear God,
Please listen to my desperate plea
This is a sea of depression,no ounce left of glee.
I want to see what love,justice and peace in reality are,just the theory isn't enough!
Are they really out there somewhere? Or is it all a bluff?
Engulfed by the dark night we are helpless,
Can't You make it alright and get us out of this mess?
You are the Almighty, do your thing and I believe evil will cease,
And if that is too much to ask for then do one little thing please.
Hell can't be worse than this, living here is just not worth it!
Please set my soul free, I no longer want to be a part of this!

    A very very beautiful Poem. it is worth reading... but i would like to comment on these specific lines

    " Bloodshed in the name of racism,is this how you created earthlings to be?

    We are The most beautiful among all of God's Creation. This is what we chose to be. a murderer , a rapist , a racist . God has granted us a free will. and this earth you referred to is our Examination hall. This is a our Test not the True Life. Life will start After Death according to our results. i used to Question my Lord sometimes, and i would get the answer that STUNNED me.....

    " All praises belong to God the only One , the Merciful. Allah "

    You established your idea well. However, the expression of it didn't feel special, as I think a poem should. It felt more like prose with some forced rhymes and line breaks. You can do better!

    You definately have the potential to be a great writer, but I think right now you're trying to hard. Just write what comes to your mind, it seems like you were trying to make it rhyme and it seemed forced at times. I like the idea and its pretty well done, but its sloppy in certain areas as well. Take your time and sometimes not thinking as much is better in poetry, write with your heart not with your mind. Well done though
