A Problem Yet To Be Solved

"God created man

in his own image"

But ever since

the fall of man

Man is but a sinner

who must do penance

That is what

God's servants say

A true believer

was hit by misfortune

Although he had ;ed

a sinless life

"Can this be the will

of an almighty god?"

Clouded skies

are reflecting

his state of mind

Storm rages above him

in the dead of night

But also in his heart

His strength and will

have failed him

And he's beginning

to doubt

Those were even

features of

a higher might

Inside

he feels emptiness

Might reflect

a void in heaven

And the absence of God

Devoid of content

is the word of God

Serves no purpose

in conformity

with his life

As all prosperity

has been washed away

And no support

is to be accounted for

from the "good" souls

He feels named

and alone

as there' no one

to answer his prayers

No angels,

no intervention divine

Would save him

should he fall

All hope is lost but now

he dares not believe

Or live in the lie

that used to be his shield

If the meaning of life;

To honor

and live for God

Proves to be a lie

What's there to live for?

I deny

that there ever was a god

Or a meaning of life

other than reproduction

The rest is up

to each and everyone of us

To seek or create

Scourge

of the philosopher

Can there be a god

if this world is a failure?

The problem is old

but yet to be solved

So if there ever

was a god

Her's either dead,

powerless, or a sadist

Only thing

to know for sure

He's unworthy

of our worship
