WHO MADE ME FAITHLESS
If God exists, He made me without faith,
Unfit for belief and the goodness of prayer.
My misfortune. The misery of one
born like this, empty of almost everything
that deserves a gaze aimed at the stars,
a devotion murmured in the form of complaint.
How can I beg for forgiveness
if I don’t know where, how, or by whom I sinned?
How can I ask for the gift of salvation
if I’m not even sure I want to be saved?
It must be good to have someone to pray to,
even if it’s the multiple
and intangible deities of water, winds, and lights.
I was born without faith. Period.
Maybe God forgot about me
when distributing to humans
the imperishable gift of submission and belief.
Maybe I was asleep or, who knows,
hadn’t yet left the womb.
Anything is possible. But I dare to ask:
what if God, pretending this unforgivable forgetfulness,
gave me the verse to speak to Him
imagining that I am speaking with myself?
Only at the end of all writing
will I be certain about this. Who
will be there waiting for me
when there are no more words to say?

I am sharing photos of landscapes, moments and experiences. Nature and sea are the most visited themes in my photo collection, but any attention-grabbing aspect can be photographed. Hope you enjoy it...
