I know that your life is broken;
You are trying to find the way.
All your dreams lay scattered-
you don't want to see another day.
Your tears blind you like broken glass,
But look through them at the cross.
Jesus has been waiting through it all
And he is not going to suffer any loss.
Through the rain a rainbow will appear-
Laughter will return to you one day.
The sadness will be forgotten
As the sun chases the clouds away.
Look through the tears and see the cross-
With outstretched arms he is waiting for you.
Open your heart and let Jesus in-
He will guide you in all you do.

Good rhythm. The imagery you use, glass, rain, etc. is also affective and makes the piece stronger and more enjoyable to read. I'm going to be harsher on prewrites for this contest, but I wish you good luck and thank you for entering my contest.

I love the analogy that you took the rain as tears and also how they 'muddy' the dreams a person may have. Good luck in the contest.
