your god

your god

A Poem by lillian

i hope you do okay
i hope your god follows through all the way
i hope you find love
even joy
i hope there's nothing more you're searching for

but if not
your god is your god
and if i'm not
that doesn't mean i'm flawed

i hope your god
is something in the clouds
looking from above
sending angels down

but what if my god
plays a different instrument
what if my god
comes from within?

so if he doesn't
if it's all just lies
i wish you the best
as you grieve your goodbyes

but if you're right
and i've been arrogantly assuming
i still hope at the end of the day
you would just get to know me

Forcing one's religious beliefs on another has been since the dawn of time. In all fairness, I think we're a little bit better about accepting different beliefs now. I think it's becoming more common to accept a person for the goodness in their heart and the openness of their actions. God knows when to speak to those who are unsure of their own minds and will guide them. We all need to appreciate each other, be respectful and the rest will come naturally. Of course, there are still those that look down on anyone who is not like them. What does that tell you about their god?

Actually, I think you have done a good job here. I sense there is pain just below the surface of the well wishes. If a breakup has not occurred, one is probably imminent. Be strong; it's all just learning anyway.
