ME
~

I wasted a hundred Sundays
Days
I will never get back
3 hours of singing
"Praise the Lord! Hallelujah!"
"Lord Jesus Christ will not forsake thee"
So why has God forsaken me?

So many wasted thoughts-
Dreams
God told me I shall not dream.
Lord will always save me.
And I sit at night and cry
Wishing I had died...
No hope in staying alive

I remember him and what he did...
I screamed for you-
God
But where were you today?
Maybe watching and laughing?
A bit like you always do...
I think we both know it's true.

I gave up calling-
"Goodbye!";
"Jesus Save Me!"
You never came, you didn't care
All the while I bled over there.
So,watch me walk away from you
And this life... again

It's still so funny, to me...
Even today;
When he ran his hands up my top
I cried a little, for you to see me, save me.
Jesus save me!
Please... save me, please
Again, you ignore me

I give up on religion now
& You.
You're nothing more than a promise-
Waiting to be broken.
One day, another little girl will cry to you-
In the same circumstances as me
"Jesus Save Me!" ...Tell me, what will you do?

    You've really expressed your feelings well in this. The emotions are so raw and powerful.

    Just a few suggestions:

    Last line 1st stanza -
    Should be "So why did God forsake me?"
    or "So why has God forsaken me?"

    in the 2nd stanza -
    And I sit and night, cry,
    should be "I sit at night and cry"

    Wishing I'd died - should be "Wishing I had died"

    In the last stanza - your should be "you're" or "you are".
    ---
    That will fix the grammatical things. It reads very much like a letter, which is fine, but if you want it to be more poetic, then there are ways that you can revise the lines to do that.
    ------

    Now, I must comment on the content and I hope you do not take offense to this.

    I did appreciate your warning, for I do believe in God and my faith in Him is what drives me. I in no way took offense to your writings as I have felt some of the same things in my life at different times.

    I do not hate you for writhing what you did, and it really irks me sometimes when Christians/believers/whatever people want to call themselves, jump down someone's throat for expressing negative feelings toward God.

    I'm saddened that things in your life have driven you away from God, but you must follow your heart and your conscience.

    If you need to talk about anything or would like help on any of your poems, feel free to PM me.
