When

When nothing else around you makes sense and the world in front of u seems as a foreign place. When time doesn’t exist, when those around you seem to fall away. When family and friends are just blur images, when reality seems to be unapproachable. When rhyme becomes reason, when facts never have meanings. When love is just a four letter word, when honesty can never be obtained. When we as a people don't fight together, when we seem to be pulling away. When nothing else matters, when the whys become the what fors. Is when you u start to wonder what the hell am I in this for. When you think you have it all figured out and it slaps you in the face. When all you say now is Lord just give me your Saving Grace. When what made u happy is now the cause of you being Sad. When now what made you smile now makes you mad. When nothing else matters, and it’s all said and done. It’s when you start to ask yourself When Lord will I overcome! By Sherri Fletcher Wells
