Given Up

Everything has fallen apart around me

No support from what I can see

Nothing seems to be the way I want them to be

and I just feel like I'm nobody,my emotions are crumbling



I thought forsure that God was speaking

but May be it was a lie,

I am so confused I can only see him in part of my life

I feel so alone, I don't know how I'll cope



All I feel right now, all I've done right now

All I've done is given up, please lift me up



I lay it in your hands

Please lead me to friends

Someone that will listen

Someone I can talk to

Someone who can talk to me

about anything they are feeling

because right now

Everything is crumbling

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Just something I am going through right now. Not many friends to lean on, and I feel like I have no support.

You know Andy, I am a mother, and a grandmother, but I know exactly what you are talking about in this poem. For many years I felt as though I had no one but the Lord. Now, I know we are told he is all we need, but that is not quite correct. We need each other. It is the way God designed us, and I am convinced that as you look to Jesus and pour out your heart to him, he will bring people into your life, or take you into theirs, and it will fill a void. One thing I have found is that in reaching out to others..even as you say you are beginning to do (your bio), and your email to me...it opens up the door for new friendships, and new ways of expression. May God continue to do his awesome work in your heart and in your life.
