Mea Culpa

I doubted You,

Like I have any rights to,

Although it seems like the right thing to do,

When my life came to a halt,

And I found no way to restart.

I ignored You,

A restrained rebel of a one-man riot,

Subtle like a cold treatment of young lovers,

My prayers were short and rushed,

Your words on the shelf collecting dust,

And what a year of that brought me,

But emptiness and misery.

Then I ‘get’ You,

I finally get You.

You are no government I can overthrow,

You are no lover I can ignore,

You are my creator,

Never a moment You need me,

Forever and always I need You!
