Love For God

Love For God

A Poem by Frank Branney

My love for you is so true,
you came from the heavens,
I know that is true,
I need you in my life, my God
for you take away my demons from the past,
and help me choose the right path,
and not the dark one,
for you are my saviour,
you are my life,

I need you in my life,
You are the one and only true God,
without you my life would be untrue,
but i thank you God,
for you are my light,
my dark days have passed,

I know you sent me an angel from above,
without her I would not be in love,
my love for her is strong,
without you my god,
I couldn't carry on.
So I thank you god, for sending me someone to love.

In many ways this reminded my of the metaphysical poets and their devotion to God in their poetry. Although I don't share the same faith in god I still enjoyed reading this piece.
If there was one thing I would change it would be the lines 'you are my life/I need you in my life'. the repetition of 'my life' may be deliberate but I think the poem would work even better with one of these lines removed as really they say the same thing. It's your poem though :)
Either way, a really good write.
Nice work.
