To Know Would Destroy Meaning

To Know Would Destroy Meaning

A Poem by Dana Marie

It was easy to believe when he proclaimed himself out loud

But it is hard to agree when he is hiding in the clouds

Yet to have these looming doubts is heresy as well

So unless I shut up and accept I am doomed to go to hell?

Oh but he is merciful through the workings of his son

So I will be saved if I accept him before I am done

Yet these doubts seem to mirror the clouds that block my view

Casting silhouettes across a canvas of pure gaseous blue

If I was to die and nothing was to happen who would know?

If someone once had lied to help them grow who would know?

The eraser was the worst invention and the medium second to that

giving man the power to give, edit, then to take back

Though if someone was to come up to me and say "do you love God?"

I would agree no doubt even with the trigger to my head

I would say yes if they said they'd put a bullet in my chest

I guess that is love?
