Sometimes
Sometimes I want to give up, and just lay here and die.
Sometimes the pain is just too much ,and I brake down and cry .
Sometimes I fall to my knees, and look up to the sky.
Sometimes I beg God, 'Please tell me why!'
Sometimes I wonder if I'll make it through the rain.
Sometimes I don't think its worth all the struggle and pain.
Sometimes I think I've just gone insane!
Sometimes I can't help but use the Lord's name in vain.
Sometimes I lose faith, and everything gets cold.
Sometimes the weight on my shoulders gets so hard to hold!
Sometimes this life of drama gets so old.
Sometimes I don't think I can carry this load.
But then I open the paper, or look at the news;
and I realize that everyone pays their dues.
Theres pain all over the world, way worse than mine!
People overcome amazing obstacles, it just takes time.
I have to keep faith, that theres light at the end of the tunnel.
The reward is relief, that comes after the struggle.
So I pick up my head and I thank God above,
and I know He smiles down on me, and says,"My child, pain is love!"
So whenever I get down, I'll read over these rhymes,
and I'll remember that I only feel this way.........SOMETIMES!!!
