Dec 2013
I suffocated in the lords prayer
I drowned in preachers word
I asked help of our heavenly father
My voice was never heard
God Loves All His Children
I screamed within my whispered pleas
Under thin sheets in the night
Tears would stain my pillow
Yet there was not an angel left in sight
God Loves All His Children
Filled with self loathing I prayed to god
But he would never listen
I asked the preacher if god loved me
he said "God Loves All His Children!"
God Loves All His Children
On that night I sat alone
Feeling unloved and afraid
I then realized what was wrong
But this time I didn't pray
I Am No Child Of God
I don't need a god to love me
For loving yourself is from within
Remind yourself to be happy
Because it is not a sin
