RAPID CYCLING POEMS

IF I HAD THE CHANCE TO TALK TO GOD

IF I HAD THE CHANCE TO TALK TO GOD

If I had the chance to talk to God

I’d ask him to consider those that I hold dear

All that I need is for my kids to be safe

And to know that for certain my Mother has a place

I’d beg for his mercy, his kindness and a promise

For all that I love to be kept in his care

For myself I want nothing, I accept that I’m damned

I just want to know that my family are spared

I chose the darkness over goodness and light

Don’t punish them for my sins and my wicked vice

This badness was my choice, I gave up the fight

But for them I want redemption, and a place by his side

I gave them so little, turned my back more than twice

Together they suffered as I hid away from sight

They stayed united while madness played with my mind

So dear God please hear me when I ask you to care

For my family, they’re blameless, it was all my nightmare.
