Why God Doesn't Help

Here is an I AM poem i wrote on a different interpretation of God.

I am god,

I wonder if my creations are thriving,

I hear their cries,

I want to help,

I am god.

I pretend not to hear them,

I feel so sorrow about my actions,

I touch the sky, making rain fall down against my unempirical creations,

I worry that I cannot do anything at all,

I am god.

I understand my limitations,

I say to my creations, to pray,

I dream of a powerful economy,

I try to help

I hope I can by not getting involved,

I am god.

I wonder if I make a difference,

I hear nothing in my existence,

I want to be known for my time is short,

I am god.

I pretend I am significant yet,

I feel nearly nothing,

I touch the souls of my beautiful art work I once created,

I worry how they will do without me,

I am god.

I understand that my time is now gone,

I say my last goodbye,

I dream of my art work creating more works of art,

I try to forget of my failures,

I hope life is sustainable with me painted out of the picture,

I am but no longer a factor of life; I am… god.
