Religion-Engraged

I'll never get caught up in the senseless game
I've done nothing wrong, and will not admit shame

Religion is just, a fight over power
We all shrivel and die, just like that of a flower

There is no better place, it's all a big lie
No praise to his name, for he's the bad guy

Offering false love, from the bottom of his heart
But I know the truth, and I'm not even smart

Bow to the crook and call him your king
Give him your soul, throw your hands up and sing

Let him inside and be enslaved forever
Do I have faith?, the answer is never

Take my words, and look them over
Heaven is like a four leaf clover

You'll never find it, no matter how hard you look
Give up on God, and close the book

Crucify Christ just once more
Drive in the nails, and let the blood pour

Let's give some false hopes to the world's biggest liar
We'll act like we're done, then' we'll set him on fire

(I was 17 when I wrote these poems, please forgive my ignorance. My views have changed)





Let me torture the one that has tortured me
He'll see my hate for his lies, and I'll cut his head free

blood stains created, as he twitches in pain
Immortal man, brutally slain

Live your life to the fullest, and never ask why
Tear away from God, he only wants you to die

The people who want to enslave our thoughts hide behind the name of God. They give us limited knowledge and write laws, with the statement: "It is the will of God!"

Most people don't realize the window of opportunity closes faster than it opens. Man who waits for roast duck to fly into mouth must wait very, very long time. The most needed prayers are the ones that go unrequested...

God is always inside us. As long as you keep your view in God, your circumstances can't shake you.

We should all try to make our time here more like heaven for all! ...as it is in heaven so too here on earth? Hmmm?

Sienna, I just reread this poem. It is extremely powerful and I think I know why you wrote it. And considering the reasons, I agree with you. God bless you.

For me, religion is what I personally believe in. I refuse to let anyone tell me what I should believe or how I should run my life. I believe in christianity in broad terms. I believe you have the right to believe in what ever you want to.
