God As My Friend! Poem by Umasree Raghunath

Tired am I with my own thoughts
The thoughts of loneliness that keep me rots
It's not the self-pity that's eating me hot
It's the thought of being alone in thoughts
I have this strange relationship with God
For he comes to be my solace in all bonds
Whenever I fail to find relief in people beside
He gives his shoulder for me standing aside
When it's beyond me to hold the stress
I submit myself to his abode and his recess
Wanna do the same again in life now
For I am tired with my own thoughts in brow
Work to me is keeping me ever busy
But midst of all the flow of thoughts there is a sigh
A signal to indicate that I am all alone
That makes me feel so low and down to whine
I'm gonna for a self treat with my favorite wine
If I am going to miss my God at my dine
Don't be surprised what this mess all around
For God to me is my best friend to sound
He talks to me when I have no one to share my words
He giggles with me for the most mischievous thoughts
Holding my hand in his palm to sooth my tiring nerves
For he knows that in him I see my loving dad
I realize that I ought not to be distraught and all alone
When I have him to surrender when I am going none
For in him finds my happiness to submit myself
Yes, I do realize if not none, I do have God as a Friend!
