Thinking About God

by Millie-Anne Wong aged 13

Is God watching us all
Does he judge his creations
Does he let us fall?

Does he create the problems we have to solve
Did he know that we would destroy and evolve
Does he want us to hurt
Does he want us to burn
Did he know how the earth like us would turn?

Is God the one watching us
Is he the one that we should trust
Is the devil in my conscience
Should I take him out
Should I confront?

God is forgiving
But of which god are you thinking
Zeus’s sin of adultery
His sisters they were sultry
Nobody is perfect
But God isn’t anybody

God laid the rules
But did he use us as tools?
We must obey and listen
But ignorance is bliss
And God seems to glisten

God created everything
But why did he let us sting?
He is omnibenevolent
I am barely relevant
And yet I feel the results of his mistakes
And his sins cry down my face

I want to believe in God
But who would create this place?
Does he expect applause?
Does he have the bitter taste
Of the smile that he must fake?
And can he wash his own sins?
