Atheism : A Path of Freedom



No gods above, no heavens bright,
No fate or destiny in sight.
No prayers to make, no sins to atone,
In atheism, we stand alone.

No holy texts to guide our way,
No prophets’ words to hear and obey.
We trust in reason, science, and fact,
And find our own path, with no looking back.

We do not fear an afterlife,
For this is all there is, this one life.
We make our own purpose, our own way,
And live it to the fullest, day by day.

No guilt or shame, no fear or dread,
In atheism, we are free instead.
We find beauty in the world around,
And in each other, love is found.

No gods to please, no souls to save,
In atheism, we are truly brave.
We face the world with open mind,
And make the most of what we find
