Nature of Man V. Nature of God

Nature of Man V. Nature of God

We pretend to forget

But then forget to pretend

And each step closer

Just brings us closer to the end

 

To our destinies we should go

Like lambs to the lion

But when fortune’s wind begins to blow

Well then we usually stop trying

 

And although everyone is different

We as a people remain the same

Because if the world crashed down around us

The first thing we would look for is someone to blame

 

It’s not that humanity is not loving

Just that society is training our species

To believe that power is the only path

And we are so busy pointing fingers

That we have forgotten how to laugh

 

Ambition should be a virtue

But it has become a holy quest

And for now waiting is all we can do

Until the damage can be assessed

 

Because religion can’t be trusted

There are too many doctrines to follow

No one is looking for a real path

Just a way to fill the hollow

 

In the way that everyone is different

God should be different to us all

Multi-dimensional and faceted

More diverse than our imaginations are small

Yes, it is alot of different religions but that why we must get a spiritual relationship why God Almifhty ourself. Then we can know him for our self and ask him to reveal hisself to you so you can know him for youself. Not what man say.God bless you my sister in Christ.

Thank you Wakeitha for all of your kind words. It really means alot that you took the time to read these and share some of your insight.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
