Forgiving God

I really should forgive God 
At some point 
I really should probably move on 
Let my soul heal 
It was not his fault 
I talked to my father today 
Like talked talked 
I have to say he is ok
Maybe more than ok 
He is great 
And this brought out this thought 
I should perhaps forgive God 
It really was not his fault 
It is been three decades 
There is a chance I popped into existence
Into his care 
He needed to protect me 
By making me Small
By caging me 
Forcing me to live here 
For the time being
And that is ok 
Maybe I make the best of it 
I try It through poetry 
But not even my mom reads it 
Maybe I forgive her too 
She really means the love 
It is just expressed in a way I don’t understand 
I Forgive everybody 
Except myself 
I don’t deserve it yet 
I let myself down 
I broke my own heart 
But I forgive God 
He had no control
But he needed to seem he knew how to do it 
But time has been too long 
And he has to deal with eternity 
At some point the Man has  to let his guard down
I saw his face 
He seemed worn down
The plan going according to his plan 
Is not going the way he planned  it is going 
The men here on earth 
Are looking up to him he can’t stop 
He hasn’t had a moment 
In a long while 
He hasn’t  felt its worth it 
But there is no one else
But him at the end of time 
And he can’t let himself fail 
I forgive God 
I forgive you all 
I have to deal with myself
