when the thing he loved the most was taken
without reason, without purpose
his faith in the Invisible compromised
his pact of allegiance tested beyond its limits
A battle cry of anguish
from a loss too great to bear
There would be no deliverance from a heartless Universe
And there would be no forgiveness
from a servant so thoughtlessly betrayed
His God had drawn the line of loyalty
and love...and in that moment
a new enemy was born with hatred and resentment
of a God who went too far
Unrelenting sorrow laid upon his shoulders
haunted by young laughter now committed to the grave
echoes of a life so pure and new
innocence extinguished
and snatched from loving arms
a sinless child struck down
by his God who looked away
Now bent on retribution
retaliation in kind
A holy war designed
against His fond creation
a loaded weapon filled with grief and pain
pointed at the head of God
recipient of undeserved adoration
The question oft considered
why pain is heaped upon the head of good men
and mindful servants
to break them , to test them
the answer was too simple
There was no God to blame
All then becomes so clear
His failure to intercede was due to nonexistence
excuses insufficient for some elaborate design
a figment of imagination from a being in denial
All misery and darkness must be carried on his own
God's everlasting silence is God's judgment of each man
In the mirror lies salvation, his weapon misdirected
and now turned the other way
