Angels

I am tired.
For the seed of sorrow
Planted in my lungs,
Has sprouted into a burning bush of solemn silence.
 
Where do I turn when all is abandoned,
When I have no where else to go.
 
"God",
They say. 
 
But God has been with me all along,
Whispering secrets in my ear.
 
For a year I have struggled,
Without relief,
If what you believe is real,
Why am I not.
 
I scream of angels,
But so does the preacher.
 
What makes me wrong and gives him,
Conviction.
 
For Christianity is a hypocrisy, 
And I shall tell no lie.
It is your freedom,
Your right,
To pick and choose the plight.
