Dear God

Though I'm in no position
To question God's ways
I have more than one question
Most I dare not say

Dear God,
Why do people suffer
Pain all over their faces
What happened to laughter?
Has it been forgotten over the ages?

Dear God,
As hard as I try
Things never turn out right
All the more the urge to cry
Knowing the future isn't indeed bright

Dear God,
Pray tell
Why do I feel so sad?
Locked up in a cell
Feeling like a cad

Dear God,
Is the world ending?
Is all hope lost?
