'' My Invisble Friend I'Ve Called God '' Poem by Bri Mar

I'd an invisible friend when I was a child,
We’d laugh and converse for hours,
It used to drive everyone else wild,
He was endowed with supernatural powers.

They couldn’t see whom I was talking to,
So they said that I must is mad,
All I cared about was this person I knew,
Most adults can be really sad.

I frequented psychiatrists and doctors galore,
My peers thought I was insane,
Due to the pressure life became a chore,
The medicines played games with my brain.

The one you’re talking to doesn’t exist,
You can’t talk to what you can’t see,
This stupid behaviour just cannot persist,
You need to set your mind free.

I told them my companion had now disappeared,
My family were over the moon,
They said we’ve a friend, who must be revered,
You will be introduced to him soon.

Who is this person I intentionally asked,
He’s the creator of all life on Earth,
In total mystery my new friend was masked,
Of detail there was a terrible dearth.

Most adults obey him and to him they pray,
They grant him their love and devotion,
When I would meet him I did not have a say,
They made him sound like some magic potion.

They were talking to someone who wasn’t there,
The same as I did when I was a boy,
This made think that this isn’t fair,
It was really starting to annoy.

What was the difference between my childhood dream?
And what my mentors were doing now,
Their argument was their deity was holy and supreme
This was really baffling and how.

Pot, kettle black is what then sprung to mind,
Gross hypocrisy is truly their master,
It’s true what they say there are none so blind,
They are heading for a total disaster.

An invisible friend who was doing me no harm,
Yet I was deemed to be off my head,
Yet them doing the same doesn’t cause any alarm,
The very concept fills me with dread.

In my damaged mind I have found the solution,
My tutors cannot possibly object,
For this brainwave I will gain absolution,
I can assure them there is no disrespect.

Adults call it religion so that makes it right,
The truth has now finally dawned,
I’ve informed my peers that I’ve now seen the light,
They won’t know that they’re being conned.

My acquaintance I’ve said is a deity,
This proposal they can’t condemn as odd,
He’s now known as my high and mighty,
