Romcath

Author's Note: Erm. I hope I don't get flamed for this. But oh well. I was bored in Music class~ I don't really like it, but I dunno. I just started writing it. It came out. I dunno. o_O It's abridged, there are some stuff I really needed to edit, otherwise I might get a really bad reputation here. So yeah~ Not a direct insult to religion in itself, I'll have you people know, before some of you might go and lecture me. (MEH.) It's actually a criticism of how our society works. Just saying.

I wanted to try to make it non-rhyming. It's really hard. :\
///
They stare at you
with piercing eyes.
Sharp as their swords.
As they speak of their one.

They tell you he forgives.
But condemn you to fire.
For any question you may raise.
And any different thought you have.

Everything is evil,
the world is full of wrong.
We should grovel for being human.
Worship at the feet

of their one who contradicts
all his followers teach
and yet no one questions
but no one really believes.

You can see it in their actions
in their pitiful human deeds.
They shoot down your intelligence
if it challenges anything.

Nevermind that he made you that,
gave you wisdom to think.
To make your own decisions,
to know difference is not a sin.

We were all given free will.
But they say we have to give it up.
Offer everything to their one.
Because he needs us to believe.

And as they speak of miracles
you wonder why they only happen
at random days to random people.
And not always to those who believe.
And need.

But still you'll go there and kneel.
And before and after every meal and day.
You have to wonder why he truly needs
millions to kiss his feet.

Before we all are saved.

And lastly still they say
you will have wronged.
For something that you chose to do.
Even if you hurt no one.

Because we all must think the same.

  1. I think I like your rhyming poems more, but there was a good rhythm here. I could imagine you reciting it. o-o

    I like the last verse. Especially the last line. But that's just me. :D

    ~and not always to those who believe. and need.
    Was very true, very nicely phrased.

    I wish you'd made an uncensored version. :( I would've agreed quite vehemently.

    Oh well. >:D<
