Endeavor

Overwhelming pain nags at us all.
It eats away at our minds and spirit,
It begs and pleads for us to fall.
So many times men fall victim to its power.
It drives us mad and breaks us down.
It haunts and drives us to an unending hour.
It makes us feel that we can do no more then drown.

Oh but when that pain overtakes us and drives us mad,
We need not look far for the solution to that problem.
He’s ever present although we all don’t know it.
He will always help and free us although we all can’t feel it.
Praise Him and you can be free of these overwhelming feelings of pain,
For through Him, there is no pain that can overtake.

"It makes us feel that we can do no more then drown. "

Hmm..not to sure but this messed up the beat for me. Too long, perhaps?

Not too fond of that one...espescially the second line.


I love the theme of this poem, it was a great read.
