Inner Emotion

The burning stench of my fingertips,
Slowly shrivel the abandoned flesh off,
And just like our tendriled life,
A new layer of our masks come into place,
nothing but a fake facade made to please the unknown Gods,
Seeing the fake countless praisers falling to their knees,
Praying to their worshipper with forced tears streaming down their face,
The atmosphere after is nothing but their true colours,
mingling with the crowd they depise one another,
Behind drawn curtains,
True believers makes mistakes but learn from them,
seek nothing but the truth from above,
And praise for the love and not for a reserved place in heaven.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A certain church influenced this poem. In a blink of an eye they change their personality and put on masks to hide their true purpose of going to church.As soon as they walk in they keep up the facade until they utter the word 'Amen' and with a relieved sigh they all race to the exit , while whispering to eachother about who fell asleep and who didnt give money. Attending church is not a formal thing, coming into our Father Gods home just for the sole reason of love is a better reason than coming for appearance and representation. I've learnt that .

I have seen

I have seen this also , it is sad to see people go to church and they speak to you with no problems at all no noses in the air etc. but when you see them out and about they are truly differant people they are not the person you have talked to in the church .

you laugh at me because I am differant, I laugh at you because You are all the same ...(KoRn) J.D......
