Where is Heaven?....poetry?

Question:one day some one asked me to tell them what i thought heaven was...some parts are like a speech, but mostly it just comes from my heart.

Heaven is nothing. Only a lie you are told to keep you from fearing death it's self. It's an excuse to be pulled towards a god who doesn't care. A god who left you to cripple and burn. You might as well search for hell, for hell will soon find you in this world of war. Slashing at the bones, collapsing under the pressure of the government who says, "in god we trust." well who the hell said I trust god with my life, and why shouldn't I be allowed to speak my mind towards government if I don't believe in a man of such power that he could solemnly save us all? here's the thing, "god" abandoned us, and for those who believe he can still save you, then why has he let my family crumble and let so many people die? Heaven is a gate way towards hell.

I luv this poem... great job!

You have misidentified the problems in your life.
God or the idea of heaven aren't the problems.
The idea of heaven doesn't keep people from being afraid to die. Even people who believe in heaven or God are afraid to die--you will find that out as you get older and have more experience. (Saying one is not afraid to die is a worthless breath. Coming to a point where you almost actually do die can be a real eye-opener, so to speak).
The problems are the people in your life and those in the world.
People kill people, circumstances that people get themselves into kill people, selfishness (war) kills people.
People are the problem.
You are free to speak your mind (as everyone else is also), but just saying what is on your mind doesn't mean that what you say is correct. (Too many people feel that way already).
Instead of thinking yourself the "center of the universe" who carries all the problems of the world on your shoulders, try taking a look at your problems.
You won't find the idea of heaven as a cause of any of your problems. You won't find that believing in God causes any of your problems.
The people in your life are the problem. They created their own hell--but you get to suffer along with them.
Don't blame God for things that people have done.
I don't mean to be harsh by saying any of these things to you. I actually feel very sorry for you. I am sorry that your life is such a mess. I wish I could do something to help you, but . . . I don't know how.
I hope things get better for you quickly. You are a very deep thinker. I just wish your thoughts and experiences weren't so negative.

heaven is a gay club down the old Kent road, and no i haven't been there. i think without death life would be meaningless
