dear god

i may not believe in you but from what I've heard

you believe in me

i'm not one to ask for help

but i was following a path and i'm not sure if i've lost it

if i took the wrong one to begin with


dear god

tell me if i'm making a mistake

or if i should tell someone about what happened that day

maybe you could speak up for me

because im losing my own voice but it's okay because

i didn't really have the words to back it up anyways


dear god

i'm not really sure what you stand for but

i need someone to forgive me because

I've made a lot of mistakes and i'm starting to feel the repercussions

it's getting a little lonely so if you get tired of being an all-knowing being

i could use a friend and maybe you could too


dear god

i'm sure it's disrespectful of me to dip my toe in religion like this

especially because i don't really plan on keeping up with it

if you're real and i've just done some terrible thing

at least you won't have to spend an eternity with me

i'll be somewhere much warmer


dear god

i'm not really sure how this works

i don't know if this is like an open-letter or a one way call or two way

if it's two way i think it's a little rude that you're not responding

thanks for listening i guess

let's catch up soon, okay?
