Atheist's Prayer

in poetry •  7 years ago 

I stand alone,
Alone in a field of broken glass.
I'm not afraid,
For this is the path I've chosen.
Was I wrong?
I do not know, but do not care.
I stand alone,
Looking in your direction.

I have no god,
No one to save me from my sins.
But still I pray,
I pray for your health and joy.
To the world,
To the ones who shun me.
Let her smile,
Let her smile sincerely.

I have chosen my path.
A hard path follow, but still,
This was the choice I made.

This burden I bear is heavy,
Yet still I find the strength,
So please still lean on me.

I'll carry the weight,
The weight of both our burdens.
Even if I am crushed,
Crushed by the cross we both have held.
I have no regret,
For I stay true to what I believe in.

I have no god,
No one to save me from my sins.
But still I pray,
I pray for you.

I have no god,
No light to fill this empty void,
Yet still I walk,
Walk in your direction.
Across the glass below my feet.

i'm an atheist to ,but i don't stand alone i believe in mother nature ,that is why i always lift spiders out the bath with a tissue,but zionist jews are pathalogical white haters and have killed loads of white christians and white people over the centuries .so we have to stick up for christians .Here is the protocols of the zion.To achieve world government it is necessary to remove from the minds of men .There individualism.Loyalty to family traditions.National patriotism.Religious dogmas .This is what is going on today .We must all stick together as we don't want these evil people to achieve there goal.They hate christianity as it is a civilised religion that stops them achieving there goal.if they do achieve it it will be like the hunger games everything for them and nothing for us.

I love the image of a field of broken glass. It also seems symbolic as glass is fragile and breaks easily, sometimes ideas can also be fragile. Very nice!

Thanks for sharing .

Losing ones faith can be a trying time, but its so refreshing to live in reality and not be weighed down by false diseases and even falser cures.

Also, welcome to Steemit!

I'd recommend not going too crazy with posts too early. You should interact with the community through comments and shares. That'll help you grow and connect. I also recommend the #minnowsupportproject for any help and guidance!

Best of luck!

Thank you very much :D I'm doing a lot of commenting, but this is an exciting new place to post things I care about as well. I can actually see myself being a bit more active here than other social media.
