Remembering the first steps that he took Like a fish on a line, he had me hooked. Growing older and standing alone before I knew it, he was leaving home. This is where my rhyme begins when his world began to spin. Each spin rotating out of control splicing my heart and voiding my soul. Helpless was I, to stop the rotations My love was mixed with our frustration Distressed and weak from consumption so full of fear and stagnation Forsaken and shattered, a emotional hell My life but a shadow of self Comsumed by helplessness for my son Others, I placed on a shelf. Then in the clutter of a cold, black night My life revolving around hell I cried out to God in complete surrounder A light beam appeared from my window Within a moment time stood still Jesus, came to me Sweet tears that taste of morning dew streamed gently down my cheek as I gazed upon His face Precious tears He cried for me ....so unworthy such as I.... He said give Me your burdens now Rest in Peace again My child |

Oh Marcy what a beautiful poem, isn't it just amazing how He takes the burdens and lifts us up. So often I wonder why I waited so long to finally go to Him, never do get an answer, but I know it was the best thing to ever happen. Thanks for sharing this. Bonnie |

dearest Marcy; My heart goes out to you, as I know this mother's pain. This beautiful poem says it all. I don't know what I would do without my Lord Jesus always with me, as I give Him every burden, He always works things out for good. My prayers are with you. love, ellie Summers haunting melody that awakens the butterflies, calling them to join the dance in their silent song of praise to God. eL |

How true that life is too hard to handle on our own! I can especially appreciate your anguish because I have a 19 yr old brother who is a constant reason for prayer. I have a poem I wrote for him called "The Prodigal Son" (I'll post it another time since I have some current topics) It's basically a story of his life with the exception of the end where I was trying to create a self-fulfilling prophecy for him by writing: "Then, one day, God made it be; for him to wake, to finally see; The demons cast from his soul's reach, only God's promise left to teach. He learned with God, he's not alone; no matter where, he's always home; With this, he learned to overcome; the demon's work was all undone. With open heart, received God's word, truth was known, God’s voice, he heard, Then, in spirit, he was born again and stepped from darkness to become a man." I've given the poem to him, he cried when he read it, but I don't think he really understands where he is right now. Thanks for sharing your heart. Janie |

Marcy I was just letting you know I had found an error, and was wondering if you'd like me to correct it? 5th stanza, 3rd line "I cried out to God in complete surrounder." I think you meant Surrender? Let me know. |

No greater pain than the loss of a child This really tore at my heart. If we did not have our heavenly father to turn to, where could we go? |
