If I wrote a note to God

If I did write a note to god.
I'd explode my thoughts upon this page.
I'd tell him the world is dying.
Were in days of suffering and pain.

Our so called "leaders" dont lead us.
Instead they deploy mind tactics to control us.
"They have enough money for wars,
But cant feed the poor"  Quoted by Tupac Amaru Shakur

As humans we are divided.
We all bleed the same,
breathe the same air!
Into the life we came...

Into existence.
My dear lord this isnt a life I had pictured.
This isn't something i wouldn't have envisioned.
But there is no denying your infinite wisdom.

We're "free" but feel institutionalised.
Just another statistic in the system.
We have the poor in 3rd world countries.
Who's only wishes are that we feed them.

My dear lord as humans we are failing.
You're all powerful and all knowing.

We are all tested in our lives,
My wish is for,
All the wars to end,
So we can heal and mend this world!!

My lord, if I wrote a note to you.
What would I say?
Indeed your closer to me than my jugular vein.
So you know my hearts truest thoughts.

My lord I don't get it,
Theres more fruit in a rich mans shampoo than a poor mans plate.
Please provide me with the means to aid and assist.
To alleviate the hardships of these peoples fates.

My lord these circumstances are here for us to make a difference.
But our leaders are more concerned about their wealth, their power and egotistical vision.

They're concerned about their agenda's.
The rich are staying rich and the poor and getting poorer.
Suicidal rates are increasing at the turn of every quarter!!!

My lord,
Let me pour out my heart to you.

Guide us all, guide me to make a difference.
As a man it's what I should do.
Guide us to fix this world what it's been missing.
Love, compassion, unity, friendship and generosity in everything we amount to!

When the time comes I will have to raise my seeds in this world.
Raise the blessings you decree for me, whether it be a boy or girl.

My lord the way things are how could I have faith in the world we live in today.
When right now it's a harsh and cold place. Where it ain't even safe for kids to play!

My lord theres so much more I could say.
But I'm afraid this is for now.
All I can do, is lay my head and bow.
Hoping change does come about.

I hope my intentions speak true.
I don't wish to say this for the sake of it.
Please help us all get through.
So we can make this place better abit.

Amen! May God gear and answer your prayers. I have often said it would be an honor to live during a time that ushered in a thousand years of peace, but seeing so much suffering is hard to bear. You poem strikes a cord in my soul. Thank you for caring. ❤️?

I have a dream!
To build a land
Where purity flows
From door to door
Where love flows
From heart to heart
Where peace flows
From soul to soul
Bringing happiness
Laughter and joy for all
The poor, lame, weak and old
Building a land
Where happiness flows!!!
