    Hi Tori.

    First off I love that you used rhyme here, and the first two lines told me where you were going with this piece:

    Never thought on my knees, I'd be,
    asking God to please help me.

    ^^^ its easy to pray but when a person is on their knees, it paints another picture, one of desperation because we know no one human can help us....

    The message inside is one of hope and I am just reminded that "with God all things are possible".

    I think you need 4 line stanzas, to start. When you use rhyme-especially for long poems, you need to keep the lines and syllables as tight as you can to help the poem flow along.
    See the really long lines you have ^^^up there, those need shortened.

    Easy fix really. Just count your syllables! Enjoyed!!!
