Dear God,


I lay awake at night and think of You
Hundreds of questions I need an answer to
I lay in the dark seeking Light
Hoping against hope to see forever bright

Every life is precious full of meaning and worth
Then why do You end one without thought or reason?
I am yet to find a purpose behind Your Intent
Of mindless loss that is neither just nor pleasant

You taught us to believe that life is beautiful
With all its splendor, joy and grief
Why did you then fail us in our belief
That death need not be so lame and final

Life is love, love is life - I swore by this till my heart bled
Why have You been so painfully partial in spreading this need?
To one and all, specially to those who neither value love nor life
Do you have an answer for the living who bear the cross of loss?

Fear is invading our hearts where Faith used to shine bright
Loss is threatening to find us where Trust is losing its way
Dear God, I am willing to go beyond my beliefs, my trust and faith
To test my strength against these dark forces that has cast its shadow upon us

I do still believe that Love and Life is beautiful beyond words
And I know that there is a Light at every corner, even at the End
