There is so very much
that I could say
And yet so little left
that I can pray
My heart is, truly
on the ground
My body weary,
void, unsound.
And when I think
upon that cause
I cannot help but
stop and pause
The memories left
are tossed and worn
for all my sins on you are borne
Though tried and torn
so very weak
My consolation finds
its peak
In standing on that weathered
Name,
with no regard to worldly fame
The shepherd of the
lost in soul
The mighty One
I can't control.
From His loving arms
I find
There is no one that's
near as kind.

There was some really good rhyming, the poem was well laid out, and most of all the theme was really beautiful.
You did a super job conveying some of the struggles of life (more like what we feel) without getting extremely depressing, you did a really good job!

Oh I love it, love it. Thank you!

Can I just say that this is great? The flow is smooth, the form is pleasing and the overall sense is soothing. I am not sure you can do anything to improve this.
Thank you for sharing.
