Pray

I was asked to pray, but I don't believe in god. I think that belief can be respected, but its not. Should I compare myself to the native in line for conversion? I did pray, thanking for food and my company, but I didn't mention god, so maybe that saved me.

Spur of the moment poem-

Pray
to you
i think
light falls
and prays
for dusk
and back
rubs
for a sign
of hope
of salvation
in me
hope
hope
hope
love lives
inside religion
that a prayer
can save me
from falling down
to my own mistakes
that being
catholic
was another mistake
that curanderas
don't really exist
and herberias
sell rosemary
y hojas de limon
pray
that i can order
meat like a man
drink beer
like a man
and pray
i love
like i did
believed
i could
save or
be saved.
