How can I believe?

Can one believe in an almighty being?

One that is supposed to be our savior, our light, our guidance.

How can i believe..

When millions of people are left without a home because of a natural disaster,

when the mentally sick are taking their rage out innocent children and taking their life after,

when psychos decide to kidnap our children and abuse, terrify, and scar them for life,

when the wealthy continue to be greedy and the poor continue to struggle. 

Is there really something looking out for us? Should we continue to waste our breath

on another prayer with the hope of change arriving soon?

They said He creates us in his image, but yet i cannot see a single life on this planet

that chooses to be different. 

Forgive me i question but it is not easy. This world is unjust, cruel and unfair.

Millions of people murder, kill and take lives because they enjoy it. There is no end in sight

If i send a prayer will all that end?

How many innocent lives must be taken before it all changes?

I am angry at the world, only because it has no shown me a simple sign of being good. 

To many people are suffering and I'm suppose to believe it will all change?

How can i believe, when these events have been going on for thousands of years.

And im suppose to send in a prayer, and pray and hope. 

Am i suppose to hear of another innocent veteran die

by the hands of some ruthless punks with nothing to do on a thursday night?

How can i believe?
