Commandment One (Free verse) by TLRufener
You say you are the only God
But you are no God to me.
No one can run the world alone.
That's what I believe.
You say I'm not allowed
To worship another besides you;
But if I believe in something else
What are you going to do?
Will you strike me down
To show your truth?
Will you make a miracle
So I'll believe in only you?
What can yo do
If love gives me no hope?
What can you do
If I think you're a big joke?
When I turn my back
To find my own way
You can do nothing
To get me to stay.
My life is my own
To live and control.
But I believe what I want,
Not what I have been told.
The council of Gods
That I believe in
Is what I'll see the day
I rise again.
Teach what you want,
Sheepheard your sheep,
Because you're not the thing
In which I believe.
