When Judgment Day Comes

by Lauren Bisnett, age 15, from US

Religion or without
To go to church, undecided
To learn of evolution, undecided

half my mother
Listen to dad ask him questions, I am
half my father Is there guidance and belief beyond human spirit
and instinct?
Where did the living organisms come from?
IÊ am a letter without a stamp and a lawyer without a case
a flower with no stem
I still am wandering without a home
To know and understand all of life's theories,
but what am I, my mind is a jumble.
To be jealous, is it wrong
To be thankful, is it right
Consumed by different opinions of
which way to look
Devoured of what choice to make
into the future what voice will l pass down
or what will l say, what will I say
can I choose?
Discomforted, confused...I am sorry
I sit down uncontempt, but joyful as another
day passes
am I uneducated or just young or just...
I have no excuse
what belief will l take on
when my time comes and the path ends
on what grounds will I be judged
or will I even
