Dear God, I'm Wrong

by Jersey D Gibson

Deny the truth,
deny the proof,
deny what's in front of you.

It isn't there,
it isn't fair,
but what can you really do?

I look around,
nothing I found,
a silly notion that was in my head.

It is you, I see,
please comfort me,
as I now lay upon my death bed.

Dear God, I'm wrong,
for the things I've done,
and I've come to say I'm sorry.

He looks with a smile,
and says 'come stay a while',
and I have nothing more to worry.

Author's Note: I was in a minor slump when I wrote this, along with two other poems. This was the better of the three. The thing I like most abouit this poem is the fact that, while the person here who accepts God, didn't do it blindly. And, no, this person wasn't me.

Outstanding poem. You really captured what so many people do not want to hear, but realize what they should have realized all along.
