Religion
Does it bind or separate?
And what is religion?
I grew up with a dainty knowledge
Going to church every end week
Being kind and honest
All my years as a child I was taught
Brought up to know that
Any mistake will lead me to eternal fire
Any law broken will cause my forever suffering
I learnt that there was no understanding
No compromise
Wrong, equals hell
Right equals heaven; eternal jubilation
To me, religion was a prison
My freedom of exploration and adventure contained, shut, zoned out!
I was forced to believe in an unexplainable aspect
I thank the containment
As it helped mould the lady I am today.
When I grew up,
Out of the parental jurisdiction I made a mistake
I loved a man
I gave him my rose
I had done what religion taught me not to
It was sweet
I tasted liquor
The feeling...wow
Besides, Jesus changed water into wine right?
I knew religion shunned the practice
But... Sin was sweeter than the confinement
What is religion?
Is it a prison or a way to freedom??
Now that am tainted by the world, do I still stand a chance of deliverance?
Or should I simply live life and love it
Because my way to hell has been paved??
Religion
Religion is a way of life
The belief of things not seen
Faith.
I however choose to direct my belief towards a man
A man who gave his life for me
A man who shows me mercy and grace each day
I choose to believe that my sins can be forgiven
My faults are not a burden
He loves me unconditionally
I do not have to conform to the holier than thou norms
He loves me as I am.
Religion is a way of life
I choose the way of light.
