Keep Holding On

Keep Holding On In your darkest hours when depression envelopes you, A torment like you've never before known. When peace of mind you cannot attain, call upon God's Holy Name, And remember you are not alone. Keep Holding On How can loved ones fail to see when a dear one is slipping away, To a pit where the soul is terrorized day after day ? Failing to hear silent cries of a child imprisoned in a demonic land, That has destroyed tens of thousands in years gone by, Does no one care or understand? People marry and divorce not considering how it affects daughter, and son, While they are busy forging a new life for their selfish selves, The child's left to find a way in a world of decay sits playing with a loaded gun. To that desperate victim starving for the love once shared in his home, I promise true you needn't walk the Valley alone. Keep Holding On. Hold on to the truth your Father God loves you more than you can imagine, Be assured ...Into the winds each fallen tear will be blown, Trust Him to reveal how you can win the Victory over severe depression, And remember, You are never alone. Keep Holding On . Poem by Joan Donnelly Ellis Sept. 30, 2015 Title by Joseph Tomkiell
