Do You Believe In God?

May you tremble as I tweak?
My mind's been going; it's been bleak..
I feel you pray inside your mind,
but why not speak your words of rhyme?
Do you feel your strength will go,
If I would hear; think I would blow?
I touch your face, I feel your sweat,
you are the insect that's trapped in my net.
But if I would say I'd let you go,
by simply letting loose of your installed grasping woe.
Your woe which it is, believing in this, 
forever being that you haven't even heard hiss.
But do think it up twice,
I'm being rather nice;
give up his thought, and I'll let you live.
But give up his word and die old with that sin...






("Do you believe in god? Written on the bullet? Say yes, I'll pull the trigger." From the
band FLYLEAF song CASSIE Was listening to it and made me write this.)

Very original, Jessica. I certainly do believe in God though there are things that happen in this world that make me wonder why He gave us free will to create our own destinies. Great work! Love, CArolyn

many are being killed eevry day because they love God in other countries, butt hey refuse to compromise their faith this poem is a great write and an inspiration to stand and fight for what we believe in regardless of the cost, Jesus died for us we should do the same for him if anyone tries to force us to renounce our love, my husband would say pull the trigger if someone asked him, eaither way we go to heaven, if we live we go to heaven eventualy if we die we still go to heaven, God bless you
