there used to be
there used to be the yearning to connect with something more
more in line with the soul and stars,
more tuned to the search of God.
a simple search as the hearts of man are simple
only the complexity of choices makes such simplicity become distorted
and yet there used to be the desire to connect with a higher power
and then prophets came along
so many who connected with something more
more in line with the soul and stare,
more tuned to the search of God.
so many listened, so many learned, so many tried
and then
slowly it all changed
no longer trying to be connected with who they are
no longer wanting to be
turning mind and back upon anything more
no longer believing in anything other then themselves.
there used to be God in the lives of so many
and while so many now spit in the eye of God
there used to be so many more that tried with a whole heart, to love God.
