I dislike hypocrites.

And who doesn’t?

I am a hypocrite,

I dislike me.

I have attended church all my life,

And now I’m wondering why I attend.

What are my reasons for going?

Boys?

Fellowship with other believers?

Because I’m told to?

Because God says to?

What are reasons for going?

Is there a right or wrong reason for going?

Is it wrong to attend church for selfish reasons?

If so then should you not go until you have the right reason to go?

Or just go for that wrong reason and feel like a hypocrite,

And look like you are doing the right thing?

I would like to say that I have the answer,

But this poem is going to be left unfinished,

As the answer has eluded me.

So for now,

I will be a hypocrite.
