Challenges are so wonderful
When they aren't so painful inside
emotion is just a symbol of my weakness
I cannot hide from within
Oh how much I love God
But oh how much I hurt
Decisions I wish not to make
Church is making me shiver and shake
When I finally found the one I loved
It turned my whole world upside down
courtship just seemed so great
but it wasn't meant for me
the people there are wonderful
but I can barely relate
I wish I had never gone
to this place I can never leave
I love it so much
so why do I shiver and shake
I believe some of what they believe
but I cannot be the way they want me to be
I cannot waste what I have
to gain what they have
I do not want to say goodbye
but today I will say goodbye
Good Bye Challenges I wish not to face
God take me where I need to place

Kellie,
If this poem is based from reality, I feel for you. You have a really hard decision. Hypocrisy isn't religion. For your poem, I really liked it. Way to write what you feel

you love me like sand paper loves the wood

Larry C- Oh My I haven't seen you in awhile. I have awesome news!!!! I'll email it to you.

to this place I can never leave

Could feel your emotions tearing at you.
The decisions in life are ours to make becasue we choose to make them for ourselves, not for someone else....

This was so expressive and heartfelt~
