When you're at your darkest
When you feel beat down
When you feel alone
You're NOT!

Patience pays off
Good things come to those
who
BELIEVE!

It's all part
of
GOD's
plan

I'm an example of
giving up
of
crying
of
being thrown
into
despair

It's cliche
but it's true
It's happening
for a reason

For when
your heart
is free
of the burden
weighing you
down

You will
SOAR!

You will
be
the person
you are
meant to
BE!

Don't stop
praying
Don't stop
believing
Don't stop
loving
Just because
you can't
see
the light
at the end
of the tunnel

This is a practice run
A multiple choice test
It doesn't matter
who gets to the finish line first
or if the answer
is D all the above
It just matters
that you never
give up on
You
and
GOD

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.

Kristen,

I have come to realize the cliches are some of the wisest sayings .. and are cliche because they are so true that they are over-used.  Your conviction rings out strong in this poem - and your positive attitude will help you soar higher.

I enjoyed this poem.

Alison
