Have Faith

by Meagan   May 27, 2007


I know there is a God
When I have those times when nothing goes my way,
And I honestly can not make it through the day.
When I hold in my tears so I dont have to cry,
But every ounce of me just wants to die.
How all I can think about is ending my life,
I am fed up with turmoil, stress, and strife.
When knowing there are people doing worse than me,
But the death of myself is all I want there to be.
Why I can not resist but feeling sad inside,
A life of happiness I can not abide.
And I know there is a God,
When during those times as I hold in my tears,
There is a presence around that abolishes my fears.
How for some reason when I look at the sky,
There is nothing but sunshine gleaming in my eye.
A breeze of hope that makes me survive,
And for a glimpse of a moment I am glad to be alive.
The day I feel like dying ,everything goes my way,
As if someone above is trying to say,
Hold on, dont go, there is more to life than you think,
If you are feeling down, dont let your heart sink.
Please dont die, your worth more than this,
To so many people you are an eternal bliss.
Dont give up on everything youve done,
Dont let the devil be the soul whose won.
Even if you always seem to feel downcast,
Let your life be a one to last.
And in hearing those words or seeing them in hope,
I learn to live and I learn to cope.
I feel a presence that is always around,
Telling me to stay happy and to try to be sound.
And even though some days I still fill up with angst,
I look up to the sky and give my thanks.
Thank you God for letting me see the light,
And letting me know everything will be alright.
I still get sad, and have death hidden within,
But Im no longer acting the way Ive been.
In knowing there is a tomorrow,
I dont get as much sorrow.
I live for today,
Because there is no other way.
Also I keep in mind these few simple words:
Life is not something you get to try twice,
No matter how you act, no matter how nice,
So live this one life with the most potential,
Dont ever wish for your death, that is essential.
Let people know if you feel hurt and depressed,
Dont bottle it up because you think that is best.
You would be surprised how much people care,
And never forget, God will always be there.
