Prelude to Reflection

Could it be?
That man's desire to be loved
to be humbled
caused man to create a creator.
The perfect person to look up to.
A parent for the world.

Could it be?
That the things we can't explain
the things we can't see
lead us to believe
to create
the perfect human being.

Could it be?
That the desire to belong

the desire to relate
lead us to create
divisions of belief.

Could it be?
That His only medium is faith
that my failure to see
my failure to relate
was determined by his fate.
