Believe

Prayer, many says it works
And yet not one of mine have been answered
It's a confusing feeling

everyone says that time will answer prayers
yet not even my youngest prayers have been answered
I just don't believe this is right

should someone go through life this way
I don't believe so
seeing one of my own die

Not being able to even find a love
even though many say I am like the perfect guy
Its hard to believe

Maybe there is a bigger meaning to all of this
Maybe I haven't been a good person
But why would it make GOD reject me

I guess this I will never know
I guess I will give up hope
And live my life the way I should

I will probably end up in a gutter
Either dead or close to it
But no one will care or miss me








If you try to give me a religious comment i will get mad... just read it and move on... Im tired of all you 
bigots out there that think you can judge me

Its waiting that is the best part zach....though many people don't see it like that and want God to just "work his magic". He is not rejecting anyone, he just really wants to show us that patience is worth it....and don't you dare say that no one will miss you because I certainly will

I am tempted to let you get mad ... just to see your funny face ... poem and poet do sunder ways for this poem speaks with honesty from the place where poems come ... and I when I pray to be honest like you ... am reminded that what I pray for may not meet God's will ... and in this poem you teach me again ... that what I need is not what I seek ... Blessings and love, great poet.
