God,
Have you forgotten me?
Why do you allow us to sin?
Causing loved ones pain that won't end.
Why don't you stop us?
Hit us with a lighting bolt
Shake us real hard,giving us a jolt.
You know when we are about
o break your Law's and Word.
Why is it so hard for us to cry out
Feelings tempted and weak to
Give you a shout.
We wait and run to you
After we've done wrong.
Admitting that we aren't very strong.
Knowing in our hearts that you were there all along!

Thu, March 1st, 2012 1:05amYou bring up good questions that are relevant to all who believe in God. Life can be very confusing and scary sometimes. We need faith to get through the hard times. Good poem.
Sat, March 3rd, 2012 4:08amI think this is very relate-able, good job, it was well written.
Sat, March 3rd, 2012 5:53ami get it...really...nice job ..check out my work and tell meh what u think
Mon, March 12th, 2012 4:54pmhmmm thoughtful words
I do not believe in God for how can he exist other than to be our excuses
for why things happen or don't ?
Very well written.I read your bio. You have been through so much. My son says that when we get older that we need someone or something to look for to comfort us . As in God. But I know that he watches over us all the time. I'm so sorry for your losses. We write best when we are in dire need . A way to get out the pain. Release the feelings bottled up inside us. You say you are fifty. You have such a long way to go.
To rant is to release. lol. I'm new to this site. I like it very much. I also have a blog with some of my pictures and more poetry. You might want to check them out.( thomas bartons poetry and pictures) on blogger .com. there are a couple erotic poems there. But for the most part just poems about my life. Keep putting more of your work on this site. I added you as a fan .I see you added me. thank you. You have a good day .
Sounds to me you are pretty strong. Good you can reach out to God in time of need ... being totally irreligious, I would have liked to have believed.
Sat, January 26th, 2013 2:34amAbsolutely true...A tendency we all have faced at one time or another...blaming on him when the choice has been ours...Great, great wake up call...Keep them coming...
Sun, February 3rd, 2013 4:48amVery true. I have never thought about that. Perhaps we do it because we never consider that He is there, watching us, and then we do what WE want, not what God wants. Then we realise that we messed up. I dont know why. That's just a guess. :-/ I guess only He knows the answer, and that's just one of the many questions we will have to ask Him when we meet Him.
Sun, February 17th, 2013 9:57pmThis touched a closed off part in my heart. This poem is exactly how my issues with believing has occurred. I can't say I believe now but I know the fight for faith isn't easy. Beautiful. Gets a like from me!
Wed, February 20th, 2013 6:56amLife is confusing and hard at times and we need to believe in something to help us get trough those times. There are many questions we don't and probably won't, find the answer to. Everyone goes through these times, some more than others.
Good poem and well written. :)
