Where Were You? Where were you when I needed a friend, Someone on whom I could depend? Too many times I lay on the ground, Looking for a hand that was nowhere to be found. Where were you when I needed a father? You apparently were too preoccupied to bother. Hovering over the torso of your lover, You gave another unborn neglected child a mother. Where were you, God, when I needed You? Were the things I prayed for wanted too soon? Your love has brought me eternal life, But what am I supposed to do until the end of my plight? Where were you when I shot myself in the head? Were you as relieved as I was when I was pronounced dead? Are you happy now that I have passed away, Knowing that what is left of me on the earth will soon decay? |
