Suffering in this life is sure to come
It’s inevitable, we WILL experience some
This fallen world that we live in
So broken down and full of sin
It brings loss and causes so much pain
It renders some people completely insane
We grieve our losses and try to move on
Conceal our pain, as our masks we put on
No matter what type of life you live
Perfection this world will never give
Some self medicate with drugs and alcohol
Others hide it for fear someone will see them fall
Regardless of how people choose to cope
They most likely feel they’ve reached the end of their rope
There’s only one coping mechanism that I’ve found
That comforts me when this world has let me down
It’s falling on my knees in prayer
To my Father in Heaven who does not only care…
But comforts me when I’m sad
He’s the best friend I’ve ever had
He binds wounds and heals broken hearts
He gathers all the pieces and parts
Let Him take your pain my friend
He promises to love you until the end
Wow Melissa! That was beautiful! Thank you for sharing that. I’m also a member of Compel Training, so way to go my fellow writer and sister in Christ! That was beautifully written. I would possibly like to use that poem in a book that I am working on (with credit to you of course) if that would be ok.
