The Conduit


Her soul was lost, and she with it,
She hadn’t found the conduit —
To bring her near to God.

Now late at night, and all alone,
She felt the pain down to the bone —
As she wondered where is God.

Her heart was broken, she hurt inside,
Alone that night she thrashed and cried —
As she wondered where is God.

She eyed two flasks, there on the table,
Both of which had a warning label —
By now she believed there is no God.

She drank the flasks, she drank them dry,
It seems it was her quest to die —
And never to know God.

It haunts me now, it will forever,
Because I never made one endeavor —
To tell her about God.
