Where are you God?
What is there to be thankful for?
A priest just told me to “pray”
But why does it hurt?
I’ve tried so hard
To heal wounds from my past
But the dark keeps coming up inside
I’m not strong enough this time
Was I kind enough?
Was I wise enough?
Was I brave enough to say
“Forgive me Father, I wronged you?"
This makes no sense.
Why do I apologize for sins
When the man across the screen
Is a carbon copy of the one who hurt me?
When I woke up this Sunday, mourning
All I felt was my shame burning
I drove to the church
Where no one knows my name
They’re singing “Holy Spirit, you are welcome here”
But I didn’t walk in
I was so scared
So I walked to a park
Talked to the man who lived there
We took communion without any bread
And for the first time in a long time, I felt at home there
And I want to know where are you, God?
And do you love me?
Do you love me?
