What
would I
If
god were sitting
Next
to you
On
the bus one day
Would
you say hello
Or
would you turn your cheek
And
act like you didn’t see him
What
if you knew who it was
Would
you pepper him
With
question after dumb question
Why
god why did you
Why
didn’t you,
Or
Would
you play it cool
And
let him tell you
What
he would
Prophecy
or proclamation
Taking
it all in like a
Divine puppet
Modern
day prophet
What
if God rode
Next
to you and didn't
Say
a word
Just
smiled at you sadly
Would
you tell him your sins
Would
you expose the deep dark
Unload
on him
Or
would you tell him
Of
the blessings of your life
Those
things you are oh so grateful for
Would
you thank god for another breath
One
night I asked god to save me for my children
I
don’t think I could survive another prayer like that one
What
would I
What
could I
What
have I
What
should I
What
will I

Pretty much your best work I know of. Those last lines knock it out of the park. The one about surviving your prayer is first class.
