He Lives On

He lives on forevermore
And He stands at Heaven open door
Though the world is full today
Many will not enter on that Judgement Day

Two thousand years ago He died
Yet He lives on never denied
He will be with us for all our life
And keep us from the Devil's strife

He lives on, and on, and on
Never from us will He be gone
He will be with us everywhere
And meet our every care

He lives on in our hearts
And we will never be apart
He lives on in our minds
And the Lord He is so kind
He lives on

watching this event, if it makes you wanna cry or be sick then brilliant, transfer that into your poetry. with any subject...you wanna hit them with the full impact of your ability. and show them who YOU are inside...not only your christ. Xo Raiin

nice work. everyone has their own style writing, though i think your writing is good, try to expand your horizon a little and experiance new tecniques and subjects. write with your emotion from inside. try to write from the core of your being and drag your readers into your emotion...since this is a subject you like maybe write a piece about Jesus's cruxifixition from his or someone else's point. in that make them feel his pain and the pain of the witness, the pain that you feel while reading

Amen to that, Jamie. Your testimony of Jesus Christ is very strong and nicely stated in the beautiful poem. Keep writing! Lovingly, Dane Ann
