Heather was my best person friend
for the time I was with her growing up
God should have been so the songs told me
but He was too confusing
too fair weather
Daddy and Mommy said they were God's voice
preaching the "good news"
of what I was never sure
the god Mommy and Daddy were always gone
And what's good about that?
they said we were we
but we weren't they were they
and i was me, just me
and then they weren't they
they were he and she with new they
they said their new People were gods too
they had to be obeyed too
i thought there were only 3 gods in one person
and that we have a friend in Jesus
but they didn't want to be my friend
i tried, so hard it hurt
to do, to fix, to help, to be for them
but not hard enough for the new god People
who didn't like me or want to be my friend
any more than the first god People.
and i guess i got the love part wrong too
My bible said God is love
and He cares like a shepherd for sheep
But the for god People didn't care, weren't there
for me, just their new they
i saw other daddies and mommies who weren't god
who took care of their kids, kept them safe
loved them and liked them mostly
some even liked me
and wanted to be my friend
maybe the god People were love for other sheep
and their good news was only for them?
kids who weren't bad little lambs like me
sheep who were prettier, not fat, ugly
who didn't get in their way or need things
i don't know how i made the god People mad
i never cried when god Dad left
or god Mom didn't want to be with me
i tried to smile when god Mom's god Husband laughed at me
i tried to serve god Dad's god Wife as She said
But Gods knows everything and hate sin
maybe the god People saw sin i didn't
i must not be good in my heart
that's why the god People don't like me
and why they don't want to be my friend
i am glad for Heather friend
