To God

God

I never wrote you

A poem before

Maybe it`s because

I don`t think

I`d knock on heaven`s door

I couldn`t confess

A single sin

Even when they told me

Your grace I would win

The book of life says at your sight

Every knee shall bow

And every tongue confess

But Lord you were not the first

Not even the last person I thought about

When consumed by stress

I couldn`t pray to you

Because every time I tried

There was doubt on my mind

I sometimes try peering through

The bible because the priest told me

That, in there all the answers I will find

But God

Right now, at this point in my life

The only answer I seek is

One from your own lips

I wish to converse with you

Man to God

God to Man

I wish to feel your heavenly touch

And see your face

But a million times as much

I fear you!
