Gods Final Answer Please

If I could talk to God I would only ask him why? Why so much pain in this world? Why good people always die? With a soft stuttering voice And a nod towards the ground I would say “I’ve searched for this answer I've searched all around But no one can ever tell me For their mind it is out of there bound For this Answer I seek only the truth With you I figured I would find Because you are the creator of my world With a distinguished reputation of being kind" As I suspect he would give me an answer He would tell me why good people die He would say "I do it for a reason To help better someone else’s life For them by going through this experience A change in their life they won't deny A hint of reality A hint that in life there is a purpose If I did not have to give out these gifts Then I would have already resurfaced To give someone a chance at paradise To live in the Kingdom of Heaven The one who is chosen must sacrifice I give them a choice before I take them As my son did, and many have done I know it was hard but it was their decision" As I am overwhelmed with feeling And I am shocked full of stun He say's "don’t think I am cruel; I don’t do this for fun" With an understanding look on my face I would say that I finally know my place With a look in his eye and a smile full of grace I'll gladly be waiting to take someone else’s place This is for Matt Caliri's If you could talk to god contest
