The 4 stages of my atheism.

1. Dear God in heaven, so contrite
   Ultimate of truth and light
   While I pray with all my might
   I ask deliverance from my plight
2. Forgive me, for I haven't quite
   The strength to carry on the fight
   Which for so long, I've felt was right
   My brightest day, remains the night.
3. So, help me "Lord" to have the sight
   To see once more, thy robes of white
   And feel no other mentor's bite
   Like those which bind me now, so tight.
4. Replace depression with delight
   Give guidance to my spirit's flight
   Allow me to obtain a height
   above the one I leave tonight.
