Knocking On Heavens Door

Last night
I was knocking
on heavens door.
My heart
in distress
I wanted to
be with the Lord.
In the morning
I felt better
yet still feel
the loss.
I need
to get back
on that straight
and narrow road
lest my immortal
soul is lost.

James

You sound to serious of I would usually joke

It is too easy to write of how we are all going to leave for everever, whilst most of us feel the Government want's us dead and the taxes for their votes.

A few words

As I lay my credit down
Was it yours to take
Why can't I get the pennies
Of the old size to take

I know the keeper of hell
Takes American Express
But why, after paying for Platinum

Can't I go

With this service that only English Football Manager's get

thank you Sea, Magnus, Bodger and Tom for the nice responses...
Recently I was feeling lots of distress brought on by current situations, but I know it was much deeper than that.  The best way I know how to explain it is by quoting from a very useful book I have been reading.  "The present upset is just a trigger to get us in touch with feelings that we have carried for a long time, so that they can get out to be healed."  From the book "If It Hurts It Isn't Love"...page 55.
