Poem Artwork

Lets put it this way
I'm strong enough to write
and tough enough to fight
but that doesn't make it right
My strength is my treasure
but sometimes I'll bend
under pressure
Then I'll try to say
I did my best
when I actually fail the test

I'm strong enough to handle
my failure in life
and suffer with my misery and strife
After all is said and done
I'm still standing as one
one disappointed sonofagun
be right here and I'm not going to run
I know how to run
even though it's no fun
Some of it I've done

Actually I need a break
I'm just a man strong and weak
But I break too much
kind of get out of touch
While I'm out of touch
I try to find another crutch
Once I join the world again
I still try to win
I'm so use to losing
I'm numb to the bruising

I AM JUST A WOMAN, WHO IS NOT STRONG AT ALL AND I AM THANKFUL TO GOD THAT I REALIZE AND ACCEPT THAT BECAUSE...'WHEN I AM WEAK, HE IS STRONG'. SO, I CAN STEP BACK AND LET HIM FIGHT ALL MY BATTLES. SOMETIMES I FORGET THIS AND TRY TO FIGHT MY OWN BATTLES, BUT HE ALWAYS STEPS IN AND REMINDS ME THAT MY VICTORIES ARE ALL IN HIM...AND MY FAILURES TOO FOR THAT MATTER. FAILURE IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD IS NOT FAILURE IN HIS EYES FOR...'ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD FOR THEM THAT LOVE GOD AND ARE CALLED ACCORING TO HIS PURPOSE'. WHAT A INSPIRED WORK - I ENJOYED THIS ONE VERY MUCH ALSO. THANKS FOR SHARING AND GOD BLESS YOU. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

Great write. You paint a picture of life. Failures and triumphs but mostly it looks at our disappointments.
Then I'll try to say
I did my best
when I actually fail the test... And actually you did your best but apparently that wasn't good enough!
Try again...) but you don not have to try again with this write. It came out right the first try.
God bless,
Lew
