God...
Who are you?
I want to see your face
Feel your love, your touch,
Your warmth, your grace.
I want to know you
But I cannot understand
Why things are
What of humanity you demand.
I love others
If I couldn't I tried.
Like your Son
He was with us for a breath
We killed Him, He died, then He left.
He left to be by your side,
Where all the saints and Angels
reside.
Or say they say.
And we will join you,
So long as we pray.
But father I do not even know your name!
Allah, Lord, Yahweh?
Father, Mother!
Unknown perhaps another?
A spirit of many an alias
Each religion with such disparity
Sharing an unearthly similarity
A belief
Seeking relief from the cruel sting of death
Or to praise you with their last breath
What are you?
You are the wind
The sun the rain.
My love, my laughter but overall my pain.
Would you really send me there?!
I? A fatherless-child
Down into the fire
Where the flames are wild.
Some say you judge by heart
Others say by deed.
This remains dependent
On the creed, they were steered to
If which they adhered to
If not would they fall into the fire
For succumbing to their human desire?
Who are you?
I want to be by your side and feel your embrace.
But I can't
I don't see your face.
I would die screaming your name!
For a slight hope
To see you again
My parent, my creator
Who lovingly assembled us in a blue spherical incubator.
