I like the first 3 lines the best. I think you might like the poetry of St. John of the Cross.


I noticed in your comments to people that you said you "shun the idea that God would rather speak to us through angels and preachers than simply directly through our own hearts." Yet you quote the Bible and speak of the Summa? What is wrong with God using things or people to speak to us. . .to our hearts even? Maybe that is the way He prefers to speak to our hearts at times and at other times He does it without any of this. Maybe He choses the how and not us. It would make sense afterall that He set it up however it is He does it if He is God.

whoa! The first 2 lines don't really make sense to me, but I absolutely love the rest of the poem

Well, if they were truely Catholic in their prayers, they most likely would have been praying for whatever God-willed. . .even if that meant their own deaths.
(you know, like Jesus during His Passion when He asked more than once for His suffering to be taken away. . .unless it be the will of His Father)

Dark. . . it has something to do with the well known saying "ask and you shall recieve"

I like the last line, and a lot of the rest of it too. I think it could flow a lot better though.

I don't sense much feeling in the poem, but I bet you have a lot more you could put into it?
