You're Wrong


You may think that this earth you walk on

is rejecting your every step,

and waits for you to fail and stumble to its surface. 

You may think that the sky above

is never in your favor,

and rains on purpose just to burden your day.

You may even think the people around you

judge you for who you are,

because you did in fact fail, and stumble,

and nothing feels okay anymore.

 

You may even think you are alone

and abandoned in this world,

that there is nobody here to help you.

You could be thinking that you are what they say

and that maybe you are a monster,

for doing one thing wrong.

A LONG TIME AGO.

 

You're wrong.

The ground rejects your every step because of Newton's third law,

and the skies pour rain because of precipitation.

The people around you? They don't care what happens to you as long as THEY are alive,

so why care about their judgemental glances?

 

You aren't alone in this world, because God will help you.

No matter when it all happened, He will forgive you.

No matter what you've done, He will never judge you.
