I'M Still Standing

There's a tornado called pain That comes to destroy me A hurricane called lies To knock me off my feet Thunderstorms called misery Trying to take a hold off me Rains called evil That tries to consume me But... There is the sun called happy To show me I'm still standing....

Ahh, the many faces of evil...hold on to that ray of hope, and like John said, "connect yourself to God,"...evil can't survive where goodness lives....always, Christy

Very beautiful poetry, and I love the end, because the speaker is still standing, no matter what! Very strong and leaves with a feeling of hope, great writing. God bless, Amy :)

you have to have a plan and will power. if he has an anchor baby this can be difficult and you may be traped. but if you connect your self to God or someone else. then you can make it. but the someone else is key. as long as your lonely he'll be welcome. do what other women do move away. if he comes to find you thenyou may want to consider keeping him.john
