Analysis of Spirituality



Should I believe in you?
Maybe it would be good to,
Have someone controling things,
Someone protecting my heart strings.
Dear god, if your listening,
The ocean is glistening,
As I sit and watch it,
Is this your spirit?
Do you even exist?
Or is it just a twist,
In the fairytale.
There is a heaven up there,
Or so they say, it could be bare,
But they don't care,
Because they have their spirituality.
