God and Forgiveness

A Poem

By Clara .Published 6 years ago 1 min read

As a person I'd like to ask forgiveness.

Pray to God that my feet touch the ground and my mind be clear.

Instead I pray to you, not for myself, but everyone else.

I am not worthy of forgiveness,

And there are to many people born to suffer.

They reach up praying that their lives get better.

Let water wrap around their body,

Clear their soul and take them to heaven.

Yet I know for every person drowning for a cleansing of the soul,

Another person is drowning because they can't be cleansed.

So I pray to you, not for myself, but everyone else.

I pray that you forgive them.

That you save them from the sound of self hate and destruction brought upon them.

I pray to you.
