Emmy Weatherill Poet Blank verse

To God

"To God,
Today my mummy told me off
She said I hug my friend too much
She don't like the way it look
She told me to stay away 
Cause it look kinda gay

Yesterday my friend say I'm weird
She said my mum and dad have split
She see it as a crime they commit 
She told me it ain't right
Unless they were to reunite 

Last week my teacher shouted at me
He said I can't be a referee
He told me it not right in rugby
He think a girl can't control a boys team
Since it'd ruin their self esteem

So, God, I wrote to you 
It seems they always say your name
When I get the blame
But where do I belong
If I think they're wrong?"

Steven Henderson February 5, 2016 at 8:05 AM Im not him but the answer will come. Just keep knocking and asking. May you find peace and be blessed you one. Emmy Weatherill February 6, 2016 at 7:55 AM Thank you for your kind words, although I think it's important to mention I'm not religious and this poem was an effort to question whether some religious aspects are actually applicable to today's society. Thanks, Emmy X
