Dear God

by .K.i.T.t.Y.   Mar 31, 2007


Dear God,
Tonight I ask of you,
For the very first time,
If you can do me one favor.

I don't expect it to be simple,
But I expect you to have heart,
Love your creations,
Like sons and daughters.

Please, dear God,
Ease my friend's pains,
Of the trouble she feels,
And all her worries.

I ask of you,
To mend the heart,
Of a broken friend,
Who's been betrayed.

She believes,
You've let her down,
And hurt the life,
Of a family's loved one.

Give this girl,
Some faith in you,
To cure the soul,
Of a beloved friend.

She's only a teen,
And she already has
Her own drama
Beating her down.

She is trying to be strong,
But she can't hold it all in;
Give her peace of mind,
By knowing you care.

Help her friend,
Mrs. Karen Pharr,
Free herself of pain;
An ill-fated cancer.

Please, I will
Only ask once,
Knowing that this message,
May not get through.

But I have faith,
That you will help,
These two families,
Breathe with comfort.

Amen.

It's kinda odd that I would write a poem like this. I'm atheist. But because of what my best friend is going through, I had this urge to write it.

So, I don't mean to insult anyone in anyway...

    Prayer Poems are so beautiful to read, especially coming from a faith filled Atheist, I mean no offense, I am just amazed at how your Spirit was filled to write for a friend. All prayers are answered but not always the way we wish them to be. Your poem is outstanding. Shalom HaBarucha

    That was a very nice poem, and things we would all ask for. There was something about this poem I didn't like, but it is a very biased opinion. Asking God for so many things, yet you do not thank him for the things you have. I know it's just a poem, and I really like the poem, but outside of the poem, I think you should think about thanking him. Maybe your next poem you can write about the great things God has done for you? Great job on this though. Good to see people writing about their faith.
