You say you are an atheist
I wonder how you live
Without Jesus walking beside you
And the blessings He will give
How can you walk the lonely road
No footsteps but your own
How your heart must be empty
Traveling this world alone
+ + + + + + +
You say you are an atheist
How can you not feel the loss
Of Jesus who died at Calvary
On the old rugged cross
How can you live one minute
Without Jesus holding your hand
I wish I had the words
To just make you understand
+ + + + + + +
You say you are an atheist
I wonder how that can be
How do you explain away
The Jesus you see in me
Don't you feel Him knocking
Won't you please let Him in
He'll fill your heart with joy
He'll wash away your sins
Hello Linda. I have to say I really like this poem. "My first book was written mainly to make that same point." It is my first so I am not sure how good it is until I start hearing from people who wrote it. I did go out on a limb and not tell the traditional Genesis. One: I thought that might be copywrite infringement and Two: Not very original. I hope ppl like it and don't hang me for my originality...lol...anyway...great job on this poem...I believe it is the best one I have read so far.

loved this piece! Excellent work! I

believe and are sad for them.
BRAVA!

Very good, Linda. I wonder the same thing, how can anyone live such an empty life. I have had weak faith in my life and some very sad day's but to not believe is beyond my imagination. I because a Christian at a young age and suffered years of weak faith but even with this said, I still believed. Some of us have to grow and mature in our faith.
They say they're an atheist, but Who do they call out to when things get rough? The last One they call out to when they give their last breath? Sure isn't their OWN name. Food for thought, and very well penned.
