Open Letter to the Man

 

 

He said God forgives you always

That is his truth you see

But I had not forgiven God

For making you and me

 

What reason does perfection have

To make such flawed display

When all we’re asked to do is love

Too high a price to pay?

 

So focused on ourselves

While we still play the game of ‘me’

Instead of reaching out to know

The power found in ‘we’

 

We’re told our fate is in our hands

But that He knows how we’ll choose

Why do I get this feeling

That this world is going to lose

 

I’m told that He is well aware

Of just where we need to go

But I tell you down inside my heart

Don’t think we’re going to show

 

Still caught up being someone

Who can’t find the time to care

So wrapped up in our moments

That we never learn to share

 

Don’t we understand the message

Has He not spoken clear

To fill your heart up with his love

And always keep it near

 

Why can’t we shine our light on hate

To fill it’s heart with fear

It’s day is done, we claim the son

And hate’s not welcome here
