IF YOU REALLY DO EXIST CAN YOU TELL ME WHY?
by Daisy

        Is there really a God, somewhere up above
        A God or higher power supposedly so full of love
        If you really do exist can you please tell me why
        Why have I had to suffer so many years of my life
        Had I done so wrong by you
        Did I do something that made you mad
        How could you be so loving
        How could you be thought of as kind
        How could you have let me be hurt so
        A reason for all the pain I suffered
        Is so hard for me to find
        It's hard for me to even consider
        You could exist at all
        If you really do exist can you tell me why
        I was only twelve years old at the time
        When you in many ways tried to take my life away
        I just can't find a reason
        It makes no sense to me
        What good could ever come
        What purpose could there be
        For putting a twelve year old child
        Through such misery
        If you really do exist I wish you'd come to me
        I'd like to know your reasons
        For allowing that man to abuse me
        It makes no sense at all
        Why a child had to suffer such pain
        Wasn't there some other way
        And I don't mean by using someone else
        Couldn't you have found another way
        For the lesson to be learned
        Or was my lesson to be
        Learn to hate yourself
        Learn to have no sense of value
        Learn to value others lives
        And ignore your own life exists
        Learn to believe and feel
        You have no worth
        You can't trust
        Learn to tolerate pain
        You'd know how much I did
        and thought it was my fault
        If and only if you really do exist
        Or were you using me as a test
        A test to see how much pain and suffering
        One can take before they break
        If I was a part of a test
        I hope you realize now
        I'm a hell of a lot stronger
        Than you may have considered at the time
        I never broke,
        I SURVIVED
        Many before me
        Could not find the strength to go on
        So many before me died
        Because of what You put them through
        Before you choose another to live such a life
        Please consider not everyone
        Has the strength and will to survive
        Why make people die
        With so much torment inside
        Why can't they get the chance to live
        With inner peace in their life
        If you really do exist can you tell me why
        Why have so many like me
        Have to live through
        Such pain and suffering in their lives...
