DEAR GOD
Its just me pretending
we are in a court of law
I'll let you be the judge
While I present my case
Am not leaving without my questions
Being answered
Am here in broken pieces
So listen to what I have to say.
My lord
Let him tell me what is wrong
And what is right
I want to hear it standing before you
Not by the scriptures or verses from the book
Tell me what I should believe in and how
Not to stray
So many questions in my head
That I want to see where this ends.
My lord
I talk to him day and night without seeing him
Not knowing what colour he is wearing
Is it black or white?
If he is male or female
That I do not know
Why do we feel pain?
Why do the population of the poor increase?
Why do the population of the rich remain stagnant?
If there is no connection why does nothing move?
My lord
Should we talk about the deaths?
Or the innocent being punished?
Or the wailings of the people?
This case is not that simple
As there are multiple times when I needed you but
You failed to show up
So many at times I feel he listens
But chooses not to answer.
My lord
Not passing faults or blames
Not being forward
But why do good things go bad?
My thoughts are becoming sour
My lord I hope he is listening
I wake up to him and wail
Just to ease my pain.
Dear God
Everything would be fine you say
When is that day?
Nobody would plead guilty
Its just you and I
Help me embrace a new day
I know you are listening
But if you would remain silent
Just call me when you can respond
Dear God I'll be waiting
I rest my case.
