There was a time that I was happy
A time when I felt full
And now my life is ever changing
My heart, .....there is just a hole

Where is that wondeful feeling
It seems I'll never know
I try so hard to get it back
How could I ever let it go

I've shed the tears and felt the pain
Of feeling empty every night
I feel as though I'm beatin' down
And I know I'm losing that fight

I hope some day I'll get it back
Feeling happy, being full
If there is one last thing I do in life
Getting it back, that is my goal

One last thing before I go
One thing that I must say
God will help me if I ask
All I need to do is pray

Welcome to Passions, Irie. Wonderful poem! God may not take us out of our problems or pain but He will always bless us in them! There is so much of Him that we can learn when going through a trial. We just have to have eyes to see it! Again, wonderful poem!

I related so well to every word of this.  I love the final stanza....you're definately looking in the right direction.  Lovely poem.
