why

Folder: 
backslidden

a tear rolls down my cheeks

then, another silent, lonely tear

springs from its source

soon i burst into waves o tears.

my lonesome cry in this bleak life

the loudest scream i can release

is why.



why did it happen?



just one more step

and i could have succeeded

i could have shouted out:

"i've done it!!"

but no, i've done a shit

yea, that's what i've done.



i failed again,

I FAILED AGAIN!!

i am a loser,

that's what i am

A LOSER!



in vain i strive

in vain i walked on fair ways

by fair ways you get nothing

in vain, in vain, IN VAIN.



WHY DID IT HAPPEN?



why God do you want me here?

why did you let this happen?

is not enough how much i suffered,

IS NOT ENOUGH?



a last barrier,

but this last one too high.



couldn't you have got me over?

couldn't you have passed me well?

why did you let this happen?

why do you let me now on

barren fields?



my mind is all a desert

the spring of tears runs dry

and miles i cast away my eyes

but nothing than hot sand i see.

the scorcher's killin' off my brain

the pain is in and out

all i can do is to lament

but who can wipe away the bitter tears?

who, WHO can i turn to?



i can't take any longer

i can go on no more

in this dark night

i can no more keep on.

who can in this bleak life

                bring light?

Hey thanks so much for viewing my stuff, it really helped me soooo much!! I mean its for anyone who comments on my stuff, it just encourages me sooooo much. As well this poem is very descriptive. I've been through this as well, I always would wonder why on so many things in this life. Even if what you write could be depressing it can be an encouragement because at least it shows that you're not alone in this life and what you face. There are many out there who face the same struggles as you do, and that I do. So anyways thanks sooo much for what you said. I also liked this poem you wrote cuz it does have encouragement in it as well. You will have a story/testimony to tell others and lift them up I am sure! God Bless
