  tell me, dear Poet
  when exactly did any God
  'Advertise'
  what life was supposed to be like?
  was that whole
  'Jesus' on the cross, supposed
  to be a promise of fun times, ahead..?
  tell me, dear Poet
  if you didn't listen to those
  promising you eternal, paradise
  (that they, themselves
  won't even know if it exists, until
  it's too late)
  what would paradise , be
  to you?
  a decent state of health
  something meaningfully, productive
  to occupy your time, with
  a smile to bite into, every once
  in a while
  and kindness to sip, from
  those who care enough
  to share..
  would that be enough
  or would you need it to be Perfection devoid of any hurt or pain..
  look around, do you truly
  have None of these things
  are you really, that
  worse off
  than the rest of us..?
  if you believe you are, then that's fine
  I'll hope things get better for you soon...
  but, if you're true to yourself
  and realise, things
  can be a lot worse..
  then ask yourself, what more can you ask for
  how much of your prayers, truly
  go unanswered?
  what is it about those who Preach
  unattainable, Paradise
  that makes you feel, inadequate
  or worthless..
  why would They, preach
  such things, that make you feel weak?
  ask, dear Poet
  Question, dear poet
  Find your own answers
  and realise, your prayers
  are answered
  the minute, you find
  the right things, to ask for
  in life..
  don't believe the Adverts
  Curated by conniving minds
  free yourself,
  speak to your chosen God
  one on one, devoid
  of intermediary church Businesses
  asking
  for 10% of your earnings
  as 'handling fees'..
  Faith, begins from within
  free yourself, to maximise
  your Hope!
  (please forgive me
  if you find my words, inflammatory
  or derogatory to your chosen faith
  in any way
  I merely, wanted to showcase
  a state of mind
  that may be of help, to you
  I truly, meant no disrespect
  dear poet)
