Why God?

Why, God, did you save my life?
Why me, God, out of those thousands of people?
Why, God, wasn’t I on that plane?
Why, God, was my life spared?
Why, God, did you spare my family?
Why, God, were you with my family?
The day off all the terror
The day I thought the world was gone
God, why me? Why me, God?
Why, God?

Well those are all valid questions. But you were spared through His grace, and you shouldn't worry about it too much. Everything happens for a reason, you know. I hope you feel better about everything soon. And nice work on the poem.

I agree with Jenn
it's just not you time
Don't worry yourself with it and go on with your life
Just don't forget the victims and their families
thanks for sharing

I agree with Acire and Jenn, it obviously wasn't your time you need to get on with life and honour the victims and their families. A very intense poem btw
