The Darker Side of Poetry

Religions of Misery

Organised religions, so which one is true?
Are they a man made manipulation for power and false truths?
Are they a money making conspiracy creating an uncomfortable society?

This remains a mystery to me

Hatred and wars are caused
Through extremist sects of so called peaceful religions
Or maybe there's something more of which I need to see

Don't get me wrong religion brings comfort and hope and love and light
But how can you live true to the scriptures
Without some form of hypocrisy

Just to be forgiven through prayer and your sins you repent
Surely positive actions speak louder than simple words

My personal believe is be open to possibilities we create in our mind
A personal thought process
As long as you treat others with kindness, dignity, respect and loyalty.
