Questioning my Faith

Just a poem I wrote just now questioning my faith….so many questions. Maybe some will have an answer before I have to leave this earth….

 

Questioning My Faith

 

Such a change inside my soul

Unsure how it got there

Maybe because I’ve grown old

Or the judgmental stare….

 

It’s not that I don’t believe

Don’t misunderstand my words

I keep my faith in my heart

A prayer upon my lips …

 

What I really meant to say

Is hard, in fact, to articulate

I understand the words

I don’t understand the hate

 

As a human race, we must see

The pain we cause each other

Does no good to the cause

What on earth is the cause?

 

From a voice so soft

A touch so sincere

Don’t let your hate

Outweigh your love….

 

Turn on the news

Humans being blown up

Babies being hurt

Animals being tortured…..

 

In the name of what exactly?

A bright sign says a contradiction…

Disagreeing with my morals

“God Hates You”

 

In the name of God,

He’s gonna cut you down

Throw you in a lake

Surrounded by fire

 

I wasn’t taught this…

In the name of religion

This is what I see…

Don’t talk about that though….

 

Why can’t I talk about it?

You surely wonder now….

Sadly, the stone is cast at me…

How dare I question such things?

 

So, you see, I put no stock

In this thing called religion

I put my stock in a deity

Stronger than I am …

 

I hope and try to hold on

For that’s one of the gifts

He sent us from above

That He does love us…

 

How can God really hate?

He created us, after all

Surely, there’s some mistake

And my faith isn’t fallen…

 

I truly hope deep inside

That my faith won’t break

And God loves us all…

Faith, hope, and love….

The Final Kiss

 

 

Bits and pieces of stardust

Flying through space

Our doorstep it lands…

Curious modest place

 

Is this what I’m made of?

The same as you

Came from up above

Surely, cannot be true…

 

Black canvas like velvet

Sent a fierce kiss

Not at all gentle

Life from the abyss

 

The kiss came with a price

Oh, such a dear cost

Consequences so concise

So many lives lost

 

“It cannot be real”

Is what we tell ourselves

Until the day we kneel

At the empty shells

 

The kiss that was granted

From a time long ago

Somehow implanted

A harsh, painful blow…

 

Humanity would have to face

No matter how they try to run away

The last time they would embrace

Leaving souls in utter dismay

 

The question is, after all is said

Is it we’re in grief of them

Or that one day we will die?

No, this is not to condemn

 

Shall humanity go quietly

Accepting its fate: that of death

Do we truly have a choice

When we seize that last breath?

 

Deep in our lungs, the final kiss

The longest embrace from long ago

Once given, now taken away …

Making us stardust …once more….

Dying Dust

Dying Dust

 

 

Emerald blades of grass

Underneath bared feet

Wind through red hair

Sky as blue as my eyes

 

Before it all went insane

A time when mud pies

And playing with sticks

Not knowing heart break…

 

Outside until black velvet

And winking, dying dust

Only when my name was called

Forced to kiss it goodnight

 

Innocence and heart untarnished

Memories still lodged in deep

The thoughts keep me strong

Locked inside the mind to keep

 

Before the souls loved so great

Met the same fate

As the winking, dying dust….

Before I kissed it goodnight….

 

One should never forget

Never surrender completely

To the cruel dying dust

And innocence from long ago.

It’s raining today and I’ve started to form a very strong liking for The Big Bang Theory. Therefore, I’ve combined the two things I like (the show and a gif challenge) and being that it is Sunday: I owe you all a new one. Hope everyone is having a good day and I think I might take a nap. Rain always makes me sleepy.

 

Much Love and have a great afternoon.

Noises

Noises

 

Such a loud sound

Unsure of its origins

Just in the next room

Louder, louder

 

Ignore the sound

Don’t pay attention

Turn the volume louder

Try to drowned it out

 

Nagging, Nagging

Ask the only person

Who sits quietly aside

What is that noise?

 

Eyes the color of the earth

Turns with a half smile

It’s nothing, my dear

All in here is just fine

 

Time passes so slowly

Yet so quickly at once

Months go by

You hear it again

 

Drowned out the sound

Try to ignore it

Sounds growing louder

Louder, Louder still…

 

What is that inane noise?

Why is it so loud?

You look for answers again

Same answer: all is well

 

Days turn to months

Months into years

Each hour full of broke promises

Each month filled with lies

 

He knows what he’s doing

Not wanting to get caught

He’s pulled from his thoughts

Wondering: What is that sound?

 

When the sly one hears the same

‘All is fine, nothing wrong at all’

He believes that he’s still free

To charm those not his own

 

Last slab of the mortar

Slides on the final brick

The last piece of the puzzle

Firmly held in place….

 

Months, days, years

Given ample time to change

The hope is broken

Not the wall, never the wall

 

He hears the noises again

Stepping from those  he’s charmed

Asking once more: What is that noise?

I hear it again: nagging, nagging

 

Hand firmly held to chest

The answer is different

Yet still nearly the same

I am fine she says

 

What is it then? What is the noise?

Darling, it was the sound of many things

The sound of your conscious

The sound of the mortar mixed

The sound of a heart rising defenses

I don’t understand. What do you mean?

Strike right, dear. You don’t understand.

Multiple chances are blown

Yet, you managed to build a wall.

 

A wall? What wall is this? I’ve been nowhere.

You’ve been everywhere and for naught

For when you lied over and over again

Destroying what you had

You constructed a well made wall

One forged of tears, blood, and deadness.

 

He stands at the doorway and bows his head

He wants to salvage what he has….

That noise. What is that blasted noise?

It’s the sound of everything you lost,

And the creation of a brick and mortar heart.
