Deceased

I.

Where was He when the bullets pounding into you?

Was He a coward in His Heavenly retreat?

Did He guide Adam’s actions?

II.

A lifetime was built for you to carve the clay path

Shape the world with your innocent jubilance

With a half dozen years of memory

III.

Humanity shattered at nine forty

Twenty-seven new stars shine in Heaven

Tears, candles and a speech won’t resurrect you

Only Green and White to remember

IV.

Tell me, is He real?

Or are we made to believe the falsehood of His existence?

Does He guide our actions?

Or are we made to believe we are safe upon this erratic earth?

Are the streets paved with gold?

Or are we made to believe the fairy-tale of our untimely exit?

Are you with Him?

Or were you pushed to the fringe of paradise?
