Sorry for the long ones, very few of my poems are short. WHISPERING THE WORDS OF GOD Silent in the wilderness of life they call Silent in the world this life So loud you cannot hear them So quiet you feel their screams trying to explode through your mind The beat It goes on It is constant in this monotonous world we have created A mantra for the doomed No matter how much money they might have made No matter how little The shining light it seems evades my grasp I’m not a negative person by nature Man has molded me From the day I was born Until the day I die I have made my decisions on the actions of those around me I have made my belief built on those that care not for anything For those that gave their lives without thought Diving into raging waters knowing they would never surface Those that raced into burning houses given a zero chance of emerging The good of this world drives me to find even more The evil that seems to ooze from every pore causes me to turn away in distaste I find myself at a point in life What is good and what is Evil Who is the dominant? What is it that should push me to my final path? How do I know that all of this is true too the words of God? A God who never really told his tale It was told by man And we all know just how feeble man can be given a power from up on high How much of what we know is truth? How do we truly know we are on the right path? Will there be signs to point the way? I think not We are alone Maybe that is one of the tests One of the many we must endure Who can say my words are not the true words of God? Who can say that homeless man that screams his words as he staggers through the cities streets is not telling the truth? We cannot push all we hear away We must learn that God is everywhere Who says he can’t tell us the truth from the cracked lips of man that has not bathed in weeks Who says he could not be heard from the mouth a woman that sold her child for drugs Or a teenager that killed a father and his son for the small contents in his wallet The words Listen to the words Not from where they come Listen to what they say Listen to who is saying them Maybe I’m wrong Maybe I deserve the fate that is waiting for me Who can say Maybe a poet that thinks a little like I do Once they hear of my death Sickened by humanity they will put pen to paper They will tell the tale of my murder My loss My waste of life by the hands of another Who whispered the words of God |

This is the truth the Romans are the ones who put the Bible together picking from thousands of stories what they thought would be most befitting of God but who am I to judge maybe God told them to who knows all I truly can say is lead a good life don't harm anyone regardless of whether or not they deserve it who are we to judge for that matter only God is judge of all it is not our place this is a very Brilliant look into the soul of humanity and all it's glorious and not so glorious aspects just remember that there will always be a light at the end of the tunnel for those who truly have faith and live by what they know in there heart to be right,just,and always fair. |
