Someone’s Crying, Lord
Hear the desperation of this man
Holding out his hands
Can you feel his fears?
Hear his anguished tears
Someone’s Crying, Lord
Down upon his knees
Praying amongst the dying trees
He needs your guidance for another day
For he has lost his way
Someone’s Crying, Lord
Her heart has broken apart
She needs your help for the healing to start
Her thoughts are those of her demise
She feels you don’t hear her painful cries
“I hear your cries sad the Lord”
Just pray and close your eyes
As I wipe your anguished cries
I have always been near
Your straying caused your fears
I embrace your hearts every day
Just believe in me you’ll find your way
The thoughts of death don’t relive the pain
Only sadness to others will remain
You have to pray and learn to cope
For I am love and love is hope

So beautifully written, We all seem to lose our way once in a while. That is when we question our faith. We should open our lives to the Lord, He will guide us if we give Him a chance.

Dark, sad, but beautiful and hopeful. You have woven a masterpiece, The rhyme is wonderful-- I'm sure if you enter in more contests, you will win many more trophies. You don't need it, but I wish you luck in anything you do enter. This is lovely and wonderfully soothing. Thank you.

Sentiments well expressed in the lines of this poem - like the repetition of that line Someone's crying, Lord, throughout the poem. Congrats on the silver and HM in the contests too. Easy to read and understand what is being written about. He can help and it is good to ask for His assistance when down and out like this. Keep writing,

I love this poem. I liked how you did the line "Someone’s Crying, Lord" then did "I hear your cries sad the Lord”. I also liked "I have always been near
Your straying caused your fears
I embrace your hearts every day
Just believe in me you’ll find your way" Thank you for being in my contest.

Wow sis I have a great big ear if you want to chat. As the lord said my sweet sis, I hear your cries, just open your heart to him for he too is there. Life is not always easy just ask me. But I can't give up for life is to precious. You have a family, and I am alone, well I have my cats. My husband is a great support even if he’s on the other side of the world. But the loneliness really does set in my heart. But his words keep me strong and hanging in there. Well enough about me sweetness. I am glad this write could help you . For all that I write helps me that why I write to help me though everyday. Thank you for your get support and grand review of this write. Love you sis (LISA)

Awesome!!
this is true a piece of art. I loved how you had section of different people lives. That was brillant, like a poet and writer. It gives us hope to know that Giod is near. This show the religious influence that god has in your life and it shines through this poem. It was very uplifting and brings hope."You have to pray and learn to cope,For I am love and love is hope".Greatly said.

I really did try to get that person to tell his or her grief. I had more but took off a couple so it wouldn't be so long. But at the end it worked out quit well. After that I need God To reply to make it more really and get the reader to see that God does listen to our cries. Thank you for always being there. As you know I try to write from what I feel in my heart. Love you friend * rose* (LISA)
