Life is never easy
for we all must deal with pain.
We may think we're going crazy
when we start to fall apart,
all we've got to do
Is tell Jesus whats on our heart,
for there's the place to start.
He surley has the answers
for all my worldy hurt.
When life hits me hard
I know just what to do,
I just reach for my bible.
For i know he is there to
he listens to all my worries,
Calms my frazzled nerves.
He truly is my master,
He's the one i serve.
So why do we all have to feel the pain
on this planet earth,it makes us stronger
and helps us through all the trials we face.
Cause when this world is done
we'll be in a happier place.
Where you say?
Heaven,
Where we'll meet our master face to face.

Nice write and good content. However, I wonder if the poem's rhyming scheme would get more attention if you laid it out differently? Maybe not.
Congrats on the trophy, I think this piece deserved it. The content is nice and I am glad that you have that peace.

Great write!
Life isn't meant to be easy, God only puts trials in your life he knows you can make it through. He's there all along! -
INSPIRING AND BEAUTIFUL!!!
One does find peace in his word and to me I find so much release and relaxation in his beauty around me in nature.

Lovely verse!
What a heartfelt poem, full of honesty and truth - well written, thanks for the read.
Not quite sure about the lines in the last part
"Where you say
Heaven" - could do with some rearranging possibly. -
