No Heaven for Me

In my younger years I really thought
that “God” would take good care of me.
As long as I followed all “His” commands
then I could live relatively free.
 
They claimed our “God” was a loving “God”
and that to a lowly cross he’d been nailed
but no matter how hard I try to be like “Him”
they always treat me like I’ve failed.
 
If a loving parent would not leave her child
to play alone with a dangerous gift
why would a loving “God” grant us free will
and then send us to “Hell” for this shit.
 
Apparently I’m so very bad that
there’s no “Heaven” waiting for me
but “God” also judges my relationship
with my wife and my son’s sexuality.
 
Now I believe that there is no “God”
regardless of who claims that it’s true.
All that I really want any more
Is to know that I’m loving you.
 
When I’ve passed from this painful earth
I have no idea where I’m going to be
But I hope that it will be big enough
For You the Universe and me.
