Her prayers
lost the will to fly through thick clouds
That rain apathy without ceasing.
Indifference
Crashes on wings like hail stones,
Breaking bones,
Screaming theres no hope,
The air cannot carry us no more.
Her sun doesn’t make it till Monday…
Dark days descend drowning
Dreams declared during deacons.
Deceiving sermon.
Wednesday stops believing
Money can buy gods favour;
Tears sacrificed as burnt offerings
Only yield broken promises
By friday her faith becomes an atheist
She cannot believe Adam
Was made in the likeness of her father
Absent
“All men are the same”
she proclaimed
Absent they remain
Absent they will be
They plant lies on the horizon line
Covering them up with sunset sky
But in time
Truth will rise
Sending their deceit to perdition
Now realise
The lesson in disguise is this
Don’t fall for a man
Who promises a heaven
he’s never been to
Don’t let him
Enter your garden taste your fruits
Without first building you Eden
Remember he is only human
Don’t deify his words
Let actions reveal the man in him
