God does not you for your sins hate
As He is your ultimate mate!
But your sins do on your conscience weigh,
And can darken a perfectly bright day!
They are the albatross round your neck,
And can very well the peace of your mind wreck!
They can be the leaden weight on your soul
Which of your life couldn’t possibly have been the goal!
Your sins can corrode your entire being,
They can impair and distort your way of seeing!
The All-Merciful God does not punish you for any sin,
But you are undone by your own moral din!
Your ill deeds will not let you in peace rest,
They will make you in your own mortal house an unwelcome guest!
While this drama of relentless action and reaction plays out,
God will just watch from a distance no doubt
And like a doting father indulge your every folly
Because He is a good fellow jolly!

Very nice poem sir ! God doesn’t punish us for any sin but our conscience will cost us and our sins convert our good day into bad one so we should always do good deeds.

Well said, Professor saheb. Our sins will definitely weigh on our conscience, irrespective of whether God watches or punishes or not.

And that will be punishment enough for our sins without God coming into the picture, Jogesh Bhai! Thanks for responding so well to the piece of writing!
