God

A masked deity
hidden amongst the clouds

He chuckles 
in pity as you plea

He plays
a child with us in his magnifying glass

He persuades
you to commit his sins

He grasps
at the strings until they break

He is nothing

He controls nothing

He is nothing

He is
only the darkness you hide

Giving purpose
as you repent for those sins

He was
created to comfort the weak

This life
not a gift from higher powers

It is only
a test of body and mind

Look inside
and find your only true god

Forget your
worlds taboo and your sins

Now decide
what you think is right or wrong

Take time
and let go of the organized

Begin to
be who you were meant to become

Author's Notes/Comments: 

If you look at my profile you will see that I am a satanist, not the I worship the devil sort. I believe that the power of the god we all seek lies only within ourselves. I believe we must indulge ourself but only as long as it does not interfere with others rights. I also have had enough encounters with organized religion to highly dislike most involved in said religions. 

With that said,  I am sorry if any above content offends or bothers anyone but it is my poetry and expresses my mind and thoughts.
