Not My Home

My continence is sad because of the things we go through;
         Seems no one understands, not a soul to talk to;
              As we wrestle to cope with life every day;
            We pause and wonder if we're here to stay;
            We are content when things are going fine;
          But when we get into trouble we want to resign;
              No matter how often we want to give up;
          We sometimes still  feel in this life we're stuck;
        I understand the feeling seems the pain never ends;
          But it's just temporary and a new life begins;
         So try not to worry because you're never alone;
       The world where we live is surely not our home.

"The world we live is surely not our home." Sometimes though I wonder more along the line of what we have done to our home. Nice poem!

I understand the feeling seems the pain never ends......I think, who knows the pain of own inside knows the others pain
