St. Something
By Kovine
God of misremembered sentiments
God of easier times
God of when everyone liked each other
A dead god
Pious in his own right
Remembered, but no longer worshiped.
I remain faithful and devout
And god looks at me and tells me
I can only bring you sadness
But I look back at god
And smile
And say
That’s okay.

A hard metaphor of simpler times, but also an acceptance of the reality of today, the difficulty of the current time and the sorrow that it may bring. I loved it!
