Book of lies

by ..eliSa*   Oct 8, 2005


Its said you're always by our sides
Even though its you we cannot see.
Then why do I not feel your presence
When I am in my deepest misery?

How can I put my faith in you
If you show no sign you care?
You show ungratefulness
By leaving us unanswered prayers.

When we achieve goals in our lives,
"Thank God" we plead.
Your name only comes up in the good times,
But never when we are in need.

I no longer give thanks to you,
When I achieve my goals.
I know plead thanks to myself,
For I make myself whole.

So should I thank you for this world,
That you left in the hands of two?
I think I'll save my questioning
And conclude I don't believe in you.

    I Agree with this. recently my life has taken a turn for the worse, and i can no longer belive in the possibility of there being a god, when such terrible things can happen to good people. i worte a poem a lot like this, but it's too personal for me to post on the site. and i can conclude form this, its a very good poem, and i can totally realte at th moment. ~X~
