Dear God
somewhere out there
are you still alive?
or did we bury you
beneath the rubble of our progress
and call it evolution?
Dear God
if you're listening
I have so many things to say
but every time I open my mouth
the silence grows louder
is that your answer?
Dear God
do you stay quiet
because you're ashamed
of what we've done in your name?
or are you afraid
of what we've become?
Dear God
we've stained every commandment
and rewritten the rest in blood
do you fear us all the same
or have you given up
on trying to forgive us?
Dear God
have we grown so proud
you think we're trying to replace you?
or did you make us
just vain enough to try?
Dear God
if you really hate us
why'd you make us in your image
and gift us your imperfections?
Dear God
I don't care if you're real or myth
distant or dead
you're the one I strive to be
Dear God
I don't know if you're really somewhere out there
but even if you've abandoned us
I still love you
not because I believe you'll come back
but because I hope that one day
you can learn to love us again too
