Smiling behind the pain

Contributed by lowman613 on Monday, 31st March 2003 @ 05:25:00 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Just when you think your getting ahead,
You fall on your face instead,
I'm falling apart,at the seams,
nothing turns out like I dream,
Everythings going down in slow motion,
My heart is bleeding with a painful emotion,
I can't take much more of this,
My kids are sick,I feel usless,
Why can't I help them to get well,
No money is left,nothing more to sell,
The doctor bils are stacking high,
just enough money to get by,
When will this stop,when will it end,
My smiles are frowns,I can't pretend,
Sure I thank God for what we've got,
It's not much,but to some its alot,
I guess life could be worse for me,
I could be homeless,with my family,
I do good for others,and I also pray,
Why don't I ever get a break some day?
My Husband & I think lets just give up,
It's always 1/2 empty in our cup,
My tears flow but no one sees,
I beg for help on my knees,
I love my marriage,& my kids,
the pain to them is easily hid,
I just want the best for them,thats all,
Every time I try,I'm sure to fall,
Why can't things be different,or easy,
I wish this pain would set me free,
I don't want my family to go through that,
we get walked apon like a mat,
Our luck is always simply not there,
behind on everything,it's just not fare,
Trying to smile behind the pain,
My life is an emotional drain,
Were reallt trying to succeed,
making by with all we need,
No food in the house,the kids will say,
who needs food to survive anyway,
The gas bills high,the electrick bill too,
What more can we do?
My hubby works so hard I know,
theres never anything to really show,
I can't take this life that God had planned for me,
I want this to stop,for my life to be set free!

hang in there friend no matter how tough it gets God will always pick you up before you break...I know he has saved me for years..to quote Mother Theresa "God does not give me more than I can take, I just wish he didn't trust me so much."

Keep smiling Christina. God sees.
~~
Today we do not see
The reasons behind the pain
We do not understand why
The rainbow needs the rain

Lay your head upon His shoulder
Place your despair at His feet
Soon the night will be over
Morning dawns fresh and sweet
~
Then shall your joy be fulfilled
Your bud of hope fully bloom
When God answers your plea
And happiness conquers gloom

"Everythings going down in slow motion,
My heart is bleeding with a painful emotion" That is how I feel 99% of the time. I understand how difficult it is to have to constantly hide your emotions. Stay strong for your husband, your kids, and most importantly, yourself.
