Conversation À Dieu

i could ask the relationship of the water and the wind
or i could seek the knowledge of the wise man
would he tell me where the ends of the world are?
would he show me another world ?
could i ask him to make me better or is the way i am just fine 
would his voice be deep with power
or will it remind me of my father 
how will i ask whats in store for me ?
will i want to know ?
would his words nurture me like my mother
or guide me to another path .
could i ask for forgivness or has he already forgiven me .
will i studder on my words or does he know what ii have to say .
how can i word that im scared but still seem strong 
could i pray face to face and ask for her
would i ask for a long life or to fly
all these would suit well i suppose
but i would only bask in his presence and listen to his word
because all of my questions ,
he already knows .
