Running In Your Veins

 

 

God rules me and he is above me in every way

Jesus christ and his cross, gets shoved into my face everyday

 

And you can speak of your god

But running in your veins is the truth

You know down inside he is a fraud

 

For all we know he could be a simple virus

His rule brings nothing but complex violence

 

As our blessed soldiers shoot to kill

Churches stand high above all, on their cemetary hills

 

In this disgusting filthy world you still pray

Earth is god's creation, you always say

 

Well leave me out of gods many creations

To useless faith, I don't want to be another patient

 

And you, are just like god in all his ways

Telling lies and showing scars to get your praise

 

Shedding fake tears for all to see

Pleading like a *****, when she contracts a disease

Damn!

You jotted down my thoughts into a wicked rhyme! This one was really good, it was greatly enjoyed. Religion is just a fucked up fairy tale as I always say. Just an excuse to kill.

Every line was terrific, but if I had to say my favorite it would probably be the last two.

Amazing work once again!

The Moon's not that far from here...

That's too bad when God and His Love are misrepresented by ugly, self-righteous, judgmental people who need to worry about what they're doing in their own life in regards to 'getting their heart right with God' instead of forcing their twisted views/beliefs upon others to the point where the whole idea of a relationship with God seems more of a damnation than a blessing.

They focus on the religion as salvation rather than unity with the Creator. And while religion is a path which should lead to this, it has sadly become corrupt by finger pointing and blame. That's akin to child pointing to the moon and all you can see is their finger.

The finger is not the moon.

Just an indication to look at the moon and the awesomeness of its beauty seemingly so distant, an impossible, unattainable reach, but in comparison to the vast space of the universe, it's just a mere aversion of the eyes away.

Powerful verse Cody

Keep well,

'Anna

Remember, truth is only subject to the individual, even the individual that makes his home in an insane asylum. This poem can be construed as shoving your thoughts, as opposed to the thoughts of religion, in peoples faces, just as the cross was shoved into yours. Your ideas can become your own religion, and you can become your own God.

Good poetry, though I'm opposed to the subject matter.

so, truth to you is pointlessness. See, there is always a personal truth, usually instigated through personal experiences.

stop living in other people's "truths" and begin living in a world that you can create for yourself. But I believe you already "know" this.

you cannot create a world for simply "yourself" because everyone else breaks through eventually and fucks it all up.

remember, it's not what happens to you that matters, it's how you respond. We humans are balls full of emotional energy. To control our lives we need to control our emotions. If we allow other to control our emotions, we allow others to control our lives.

Are you apologizing because you believe you're an outsider? Everyone is a robot in some way or another; I mean, are we not all creatures of habit?

Humans are savage beasts that will do anything. They are scary and untrustworthy. They will kill their closest friend or their entire family if pushed right.
