Where were you when my world came crashing down, When my family was ripped apart? If you're so omnipotent Where were your rays of light When I was cast in darkness? Just where was it, exactly, That all of those "Our Fathers" went? Who was it that heard me Pleading the Decades of my plastic rosary In the dark Alone Terrified Unable to sleep While my mother cursed my father in the next room? Were you busy that night week month year? Where were you when a stuffed toy Provided me with more comfort than you, The Creator of Life? Where were your soothing words And gentle caresses When I was so enraged I could only see red? When I was so depressed there was only black-- When my life had no meaning And my world had no color? Where were you?
