Am I The Chosen Pessimist?

Here of course the rhythm of the piece is more defined by how the author wants it to be presented, and that of course gives much more freedom with the writing.  You wield your rhytmical skills expertly here--you know where to place the line breaks and spacing for a powerful effect.

On another note, I'm wondering about the idea of someone being "The chosen pessimist."  Just that there are many pessimists and people who've been dissilusioned or teeter between love and hate over God or who God used to be.  Still, each personal relationship can be uniquely on the rocks.  And it is interesting how one can end up reconciling that God may not be the God who was learned about, read about, heard about, "faithless," and yet you're beckoning Him/Her/It back here.

Just one more little item:  In the beginning of the third stanza, I think you want "a live" to be one word, "alive."

Actually, this poem has nothing really to do with a relationship with God. It's someone whose lived their entire life in the 'darkness', so to speak, and eventually finds themselves on their knees and alone so they turn to someone they do not believe in. Not so much as God, but consider it like a form of schizophrenia caused by a certain amount of loneliness, hate, etc. etc.

God being the mind and friend the 'pessimist' has created to feel more alive and optimistic.

And yes, I did not notice that spelling error, thank you for pointing it out and thanks for the comment.

Alright.  Well, I guess as "God" was capitalized, I simply assumed you meant "God."  Thanks for clarifying.  In that context the piece is perfect.  Um...this may be a dumb suggestion but maybe you could write another piece, or a number of other pieces, together telling some story about some loner who does eventually turn to what he or she sees as a myth, to keep him or her company.  Maybe you could even self-publish such a story, (and/or send it to someone else to publish it,) to make this piece fit in more.  I might also say this piece should not be at the end of that story, but somewhere in the middle.  But that may just be a dumb suggestion...

Of course, I just find it a knee jerk reaction to capitalize the word. Even when referring to multiple Gods, I do it as a sign of respect for those who worship anything attached to the word. An easy thing to be confused about if I don't clarify. ^^;;

Actually, I wrote this poem based off of a short story I am writing about the character, so no it's not a dumb suggestion at all. (: I do like the idea of continuing it with other pieces of poetry though, I may take the idea and use it even.

Thanks for the comment.
