dear god,
i don’t believe in you
pls don’t be offended
this should probably be more formal
but that would only matter if i sent it
i’ve been wondering for some time
how did you turn water into wine
anyway, we need to chat
i know what you’re thinking
it’s not about that
trust me you’re the only one i can trust
mainly because i think you’re a myth
and i don’t want to make too much of a fuss
but i think you should know:
i saw it with my own eyes,
what you did
and now is no time for lies
or little fibs
i don’t even know why i’m writing this
i just had to get rid of it
you don’t exist
and this is irrelevant
i’m going mad, did you know that?
i’m going mad and there are a hundred million things that rhyme with that
but all of them are bad
i’m going mad because of all the people hurting people
it makes me sad
does it make you sad?
you don’t have to react
i won’t even send it
(who would i send it to?)
please hear my prayer though
oh!
and, if you’re our father
can i call you dad?
