Distant Friends

He set foot inside
God's house once again
its been a long time
God said to his friend

Yes it has, not sure why i'm here
I thought maybe you knew
God please enlighten me
I'd like to hear.

You are here not for me.
That much I see.
You think I will get
a pretty lady for thee.

Thats spot on God!
Way to go,
don't worry I will be a good sport,
I'll go with the flow.

What about your principles?
How can you lie?
Deceive yourself and her?
I know that isn't you.

Yes God it isn't.
the truth isn't pretty,
thats why my brain,
is creative and quite willing.

It crafted a decent story.
One in which I cared,
to get to know you Lord,
with my cross to bear.

My motives were not entirely false
I did not go to the same house
I picked a different one Lord
don't you see?

I did see that,
thats good of thee,
maybe in time,
you will respect me.

Lord I know I'm a fool,
that only calls on you in need,
that rejects you when times are good
and cries to you when in pain

But so much about you i don't understand
and you don't do anything to ease my doubts
even doubting Thomas saw the scars
why must you hide as if from mars?

Ah i see you are gone again,
so be it, my divine friend,
i guess i'll get going,
sorry i'm a bad friend.
