I read as being quite sinister, almost as if the POV was some sort of Angel Of Death seeking to cleanse the world of its oxygen thieves.
I can also see an inspirational side to it though, prompting people to try and do the right thing.
Although a very simple seeming poem, it is very deep and far reaching. Well done.

No problem. Very often it is good to try and find other angles, you can learn a lot more.
"Why should I give you another day?"
If God asked me this, what would I say?
Please give me another day, my Lord, I want to stay
I want to live with my loved ones, please give me another day
I want to ask forgiveness to them whom I hurt so much
Show them the love, the real change, from the bottom of my heart
I want to be with my precious friend, the one I met as an angel
Tell him the truth inside my heart, show him I really, really care
I want to show the whole wide world the best gifts that I have at hand
Tell them the mystery of life that given by the Lord our God
I want to live, I want to live, another day, please give me Lord
I want to live another day to feel the beauty of this world!
Ahh..you're poems are nice muse for me to create another poem, my friend. That's only a part of my response poem which I will be posting on my page later on. Thank you for this inspiring piece.

Very good....there is much to do in your life.....live it well my friend.......=)
Oh my goodness! This is one of the best poems I have read in awhile. I love reading poems that have a religious tint to it! I am sure with God in your presence or him talking to you period, you're too stunned to have a response back to him. I don't even know what I'd say to him. I'm a Christian, but also I'm a sinner. No one's perfect by no means either. I try my best to fulfill His needs and His word. Back to your poem, I love the structure of the poem and how the stanzas are laid out. You done such a beautiful job on an amazing poem, I must say. I think this is the first poem that I have read by you. I love this though! :)
I love this stanza:
"Has he been in your heart day and night
Have you lived your life
doing what's right?"
Side note: I'll continue reading your work! It's fabulous so far! :)
P.S.-The answer to the question is give me what you think I deserve and I'll take it, since I'm your child and will obey. I'll live life to the fullest and never take anything for granted. If you were to take my life away right now, that would be okay too. I atleast know that I tried to be enough for you.

A slight edge here, which works well. Insightful, deeply probing questions.

Well it is His plan after all! :) we could answer the question, but He also already knows the answer we would give and He determines our destiny.

I wrote a short story ages ago that just came to mind, but have never posted here. I'll have to dig that up and see how worthy it is for posting. None myself... But I keep toying with the idea of ink. Not getting any younger. Many blessings to you!

"Consider the Storm"

how you made it through, how you managed to survive.
You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is.. more..
