so i found this in my creative writing book today... i like it:
Dear God i'm shamed by what i've done
I knew it wasn't right
but everything inside of me
refused to help me fight
Dear God i'm scared by what i've done
that darkest fear is cold
i saw just truth, sincerity
and he saw trust too bold
Dear God i'm hurt by what i've done
it burns behind my eyes
those brilliant little sparks of light
were nothing more than lies
Dear God i'm shocked by what i've done
i thought i knew myself
he took my hopeless, cruel, dead view
and gave me cheerful wealth
But oh! my God and oh! my heart
i cry for what i've lost
it seemed a strong and useful start
the glow was only frost.
when i found time to look around
stood back to see it all
it wasn't strength and love i found
just sand all set to fall.
i hope i'll find a star tonight
positioned up above
that might just give me all the light
he let me share part of
God but don't i seem so stupid
falling for two bit tricks
through it all i was still lucid
giggled like i was six.
i think he left me with dark ice
i think i might have cried
despite the hurt he's still my vice
his dreams were just so wide
he took my innocence, dear God
i don't think trust remains
to me, to lie was just too odd
to him, truth was the same.
Dear God i'm glad of what he's done
he stripped me of my youth
my heart is open, now i see
the weary universal truth.
Dear God i hope he's happy now
i hope he sees me still
i hope he knows just what he's done
if anyone cares to know what caused
this monumental change
all i can say is look stage left
he holds a smoking gun.
hahahahhahaha i love it. it's so corny. but i love it. anyways. yeah. just wanted to share my good laugh poem :D
love
