Troubled Life

Cumbered with a load of care,
     Not knowing with whom to share,
     Struggling to cover my fears,
     While my guilt and shame draw my demise near,
     Abandoned by everyone even my dearest peers,
     And at this point God tends to be very rare,
     Life indeed has never been fair,
     For my pain and torture has always caught me unprepared,
     But every day I bow to my Maker and make a prayer,
     As I believe one day this troubled life will see a different layer,

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
