For twenty-two years I claimed atheism.
Until, I spent six years consumed by addiction.
Homeless on dope I found desperation.
I kicked the sickness, but not my addiction.
I found a place conceived for rehabilitation.
But, their main goal was to impose their religion.
I bought into the beliefs of a christian.
Do not judge and all are forgiven.
Then I found a place called church.
That would teach me different then the lessons I learned.
If all are not judged and all are forgiven.
Then why is it that only Christians go to heaven.
I questioned the preacher about gods decision.
Because, my family and best friends were not into religion.
If heaven is a place where my loved ones cannot dwell.
Then **** religion, I'm going to hell.
