The Letter

The Letter

A Poem by The Simple Minded Poet
"

A letter to God

"

Dear God
I write a simple letter to u
One of appreciation
With utmost sincerity and humbleness
Most imporatantly I write this letter on behalf of many  people
Some who have the time,but not the means
And some who have neither of the above mentioned..

 

I write this on behalf of a praying mother
One down to her last teardrop-
But never her last kneel,

 

I write this on behalf of a drunk child's father,
Responsible for his brother's slaughter,
And the beating and molestation of the spirit of his innocent daughter

 

I write this on behalf of a young man who's lost his way..
Once had a bright future,
But now he patiently waits to rob,rape and sodomise..

 

I write this on behalf of the guys thinking they know it all
Forgetting what's right and focusing on fast flashy lifestyles

 

I write this on behalf of a virgin who thought twice to three times before giving it up


I write this on behalf of a person who's lost hope

With the rope already hanging and a bottle of pills in their hand..
A person wondering where u are..when u have always been there..

 

I write this on behalff of the non believers
The curser
The promiscuos
The liars
And everyone else needing hope and guidence

 

I pray that u open their eyes
Give them the light that they seek to get out of darkness
And be the lamp that lights the path for their lost feet

 

With the utmost sincerity,
The Simple Minded Poet
