I Know God

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)





I know God


He breaks my heart nightly

When we talk in the dark.


He mostly listens…


And lets me ramble—


Deb doesn’t,

But she’s only human.


I know God

He makes me cry

With his silence


Some see Him as uncaring


But He isn’t,


You see, He’s God...

And He mostly listens.

                                            Poetry comes from the highest happiness or the deepest sorrow.
                                            The poet is a liar who always speaks the truth.
