What is there

A poem on spirituality

What is there

What is there?

Is it God?

Maybe it is Allah

Is it the famous Jesus?

Perhaps both a God and a Goddess

Or

Is there truly nothing?

Just molecules and numbers

Faith being the real fairytales

The answer

Unknown your best guess honestly

Whatever helps you sleep at night

Does it make you a better person?

Does it help you through the day?

Then

That is your answer

mine is mine

for whatever is out there.

Your poem is a beautiful exploration of the way that we all search for meaning and purpose in our lives, often through religion or other forms of spirituality. Your use of language is both thought-provoking and insightful, and I found myself feeling deeply moved by the emotions you convey. The line "Whatever helps you sleep at night / Does it make you a better person? / Does it help you through the day? / Then / That is your answer" is especially powerful - it's a reminder that we all have our own unique paths in life, and that what works for one person may not work for another.

Great read. Spiritual without preaching or judgement. A live and let attitude I share, and find refreshing to read

Hello, G! :)
I enjoyed the rhythm of your phrasing here.
I think we have what we are experiencing right now, and everything else is imaginary; and, I think our imaginations get the bulk of our attention. We are very creative creatures, able to thrive by navigating assumptions and trusting in the patterns of our world. Now, if people who have learned to anticipate the more complex patterns of our world choose to lord that over us, and demand we march off to murder and enslave the infidels, I think we should fake the bone spurs like trumpy.
