Why God Why

Why’d you create cancer? Something that grows like weeds
Why not just end their life? No suffering, instead of creating something with multiple seeds
You created a prophecy that has treatments but it's nothing but poison and it rarely succeeds
Why God why? What about me and what I desire? What about me and my needs?
My faith has become shaken and it's all because of you, nothing can change my mind, not you the bible or rosary beads
I tried to have faith, I tried to hold on to hope, I’ve tried to pray
But you don’t listen to anything I’ve ever had to say
Coming from someone who needs you the most, I’ve tried to believe, You had me on my knees
You had me lost, confused, begging, screaming, just simply asking for help please
Why God why? What has become of you, why are you taking people away from me?
You created life just to take it for death, you’re one in the same!
With all the pain and discomfort you’ve caused me, how do I even remember your name?
I’m not sure what to do anymore, but I can honestly say I can’t take much more
You’ve given me people I get attached to, just to watch me break down when they walk through your longing door
You give me nothing to hold on to but broken memories, and broken promises
You’ve gone from my guidance to my all time future nemesis
Nothing you do will never be understanding to me, it never will make sense
Why God why? You created life for all and all for one, from a broken molding
But for some reason, your name is imprinted on my heart and I’m barely holding
Please give me a sign that you are listening
This life you gave me, is hard, its confusing, it’s broken, I’m damaged, it’s blistering
I’ve never tried to be like you, even though maybe I should
Because I’d end all the peoples pain with no suffering, as soon as I could.
