a letter to the one they call god

i didn't ask to be this way
this willing servant
has trekked the same path as your chosen son
but i can't help but feel like that orphan
neglected but expected to follow the same direction
asking no questions
made to clean the shit that bore me

there was a time when i trusted what i didn't see
doubts were out of the question
trust in he
a trip to hell i recieved
after all these miseries
i am done believing

when i look up
the sky is all i see
nothing transcendent exists
from my vantage point
a place grounded in nothing
death is what i see
dead is how i feel

waiting for the sun to break through
patiently in limbo
if you feel offended
then you will know how i feel
placing trust in the inventor of my nightmares

theories have ceased to exist
answers too late
for the mending of this one
branded a sinner
with blood on his hands
but with the face of his savior

    You know, Yerrey, you are pinpointing how i feel at the moment. I have been thinking a lot about my own beliefs and it is hard...why does this "deity" makes us suffer and other people suffer? ya know. Everything that was going okay in your life has now become shitty and you don't know what to do about it. You think to yourself, "what did I do to deserve this?"

    That is my interpretation on that though. :/

    all life is suffering.
    all life is bittersweet joy.
    love who you can while you can.

    they say GOD doesn't give us anything we can't handle.see how strong we are?

    amen Felicity...

    another thing...we absolutely cannot do what God asks us to do without His help. if you are in a deep pit, call out His name! He will dig you out. dont think you have to do it all yourself. that is what it is all about; being humble enough to realize you cant do it all yourself and asking God to help you with everything. and guess what...He always does it much better! ;) here's an example: last semester, i was only taking 2 classes at college. (6 hours) and i could barely handle that. this semester, before i even started, i asked God to give me a hard-work ethic, so i would study and prepare for all my classes. and He did! i love studying now. i really enjoy it. and im getting great grades.

    your life can be an amazing adventure. satan doesnt want you to know that. he wants you to think that you will live your whole life like a boring square. he wants you to think that the evil stuff he throws into your mind (and it isnt always him, but sometimes it is) is what you really want. God is what you really want...and He will give you more of Himself if you ask Him to.

    anyway...that is what i had to say. dont know if it helped you. praying for you guys......
