What if Hope Fades?
I wrote this poem in attempt to relay onto paper my
feelings about religion. I grew up in a very
religious home. A couple years ago I went though
some really tough times with my family; knowing
God would help me pull through it was probably the
only thing that kept me going. I think that
having something to believe in gives people hope,
without that people would see the cruelty of the
world and wouldn't be able to cope with reality.
More recently I’ve been asking a lot of questions
and I am really unsure if I can even believe if
there is a god. This might be the hardest thing
I’ve ever faced and it’s harder because no one can
answer my questions. All of my heart went into
this one scribbling of meshed words. I am the
child in the poem.
