Of God He Would Not Speak. Poem by Mandy Lee

Of God He Would Not Speak.

Rating: 2.7


I thought that he'd believe
though of God he would not speak.
I thought with God he'd stand,
though he'd miss him every week.

I thought that God'd be real
to the man I learned to love.
I thought that he'd see reason
that there's a creator up above.

I thought I'd always knew.
I'd had my suspicions anyway.
I thought that knowledge beforehand
would've stopped truth from darkening my day.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The day I learnt that people I loved didn't believe in a God. They didn't see the reason for him. I thought that finding out what I'd always thought of at the back of my mind wouldn't hurt. I was wrong.

An enjoyable piece; I understand your reason for hurting; it's certainly not easy; although I was raised within the church, I too have family members that have stepped away from God. -Joe Breunig Reaching Towards His Unbounded Glory
