MISERY MINE

Poem Commentary

It's been my life since the Army and an accident.

MISERY MINE

The strength from my body is taken
My nerves are frayed yet numb
There are many with greater problems
Although my mind allows just one
Self pity or selfish I do not know?
I try to concieve but fail
It's like spending life in prison
Or six feet deep in hell?
I pray the Lord release me
Forgive me of my deeds
To shed His grace and mercy
Until the day I'm freed?
How much longer must this go on
It is my lingering thought?
Will it last until my dying day
The answer I have not?
But through misery and forsaken
I have learned but oh one thing?
That faith in God will keep me
Beneath His mighty wing.

Thanks. I'm sorry about your disability. I fell 30 feet in 1987 compressing my whole body frame and breaking my back. I'm an Ordained Minister, but I have severe bouts with depression still. My outlook I need to keep as possitive as I can, but I keep any amount of faith I can muster. Peace from the Dove above,Samster.
