Answer Me
"I just don't want you to burn in hell" He told me.
What is hell?
A single room? A world? Another dimension? Is there fire? Just waiting to burn the damned?
I don't want to go to hell.
So which god do I worship?
What prayer do I recite?
Which book do I study?
How do I know if I'm going to hell or not?
When I close my eyes one last time...
When my heart stops beating...
When I cease to exist...
Will I go to heaven?
What's heaven? Where's heaven?
A playground in the clouds?
Filled with happiness...
Angels strumming harps...
And choirs singing praise?
Is there a God?
Is it a he? Or a she?
WHERE? WHAT? WHEN? WHY? HOW?
Someone answer me.
Your vague answers don't do your religion justice.
They don't suffice.
I'm not satisfied.
Proof?
or should I follow you blindly?
Faith?
Quite frankly, I've no time to waste.
Oh, the struggle...
If only I was born dumb.
Without an inquiring mind.
I'd believe it all...
No questions asked.
