Dad, I Wish You Were Dead (Poem)

Has anyone ever said that to you?
Or have you ever said words like these to your Dad?
These words reveal a very deep heart view,
And sentiments that sound mean, but really are sad.
 
Yet we’ve all ‘said’ them in one manner or another,
In words or actions toward people with whom we disagree,
In disobeying both our Mother and our Father,
And in rejecting God, who and how He wants us to be.
 
‘God, die!’ That’s how we act, wanting His blessings and benefits,
Without having to be bothered with Him.
‘If only He’d just move out the way, Him and all His hypocrites!’ 
And thus we live life’s Godless paradigm.
 
This is what one son said, him who would become prodigal,
As, for his Dad to die, he just could not wait!
For him, getting his hands on Dad’s wealth was so palpable.
He was blind to what sin would heap on his plate! 
 
Many have even acted this out much more directly,
Destroying their parents in some devilish craze.
For the sake of some short-term benefits, so worldly,
They destroyed those who gave them the start of their days.
 
Imagine the fruit that will sprout from such an evil deed,
Whether in this life, or that which is to follow.
That is unless this child falls on bended knee, 
And repents for the sin of being... satan’s hero.
 
This points to Heaven’s greatest enterprise,
During this Age of Grace through which we now walk.
That is one sinner to find and catalyze,
To repent and stop cold sin’s repayment clock!  
 
‘God, die!’ Like this toward God, are you still talking? 
Of this sin, have you wiped clean your slate?
Or down sin’s ‘payment promenade’ are you still walking?
If you’re still breathing, it’s not too late!  
 
For the child who has destroyed his parents,
For his ‘peace’ or a ‘piece of their wealth’,
And for you who are satan’s ‘God, die!’ clients,
Receive God’s forgiveness. Free yourself!  
 
Again..
It’s still not too late to escape being satan’s sin toy,
To accept this opportunity life to you NOW presents,
To be the center of, and enraptured within the Joy,
All Heaven experiences when just... ‘one sinner repents’.*
