The Creator

You are the creator we know

Or is Your existence a myth?

You speak through your pristine silence,

While we fail to evoke silence in our speech.

You invariably reward us for good deeds,

While You also keep a record of all sins.

You give us more than what we truly deserve,

But we still feel You do not do enough justice.

You bless us every single moment,

And we hurl curses for things not begotten.

Yet, You pour your unconditional love,

But when our wishes stay unfulfilled, we hate You.

Oh! Lord, You are so humble,

But we lack that sense of gratitude within us.
