TO WHOM DO I TURN? by *christians:iconchristians:



TO WHOM DO I TURN?

Cold and alone
Shivering like a leaf
Away from the uncaring world
Stricken with grief

Thinking of friends
Who pretend to care
To know it's not real
Is too much to bear

A lonely friend
Engulfed in self pride
Intoxicating to talk to
Our friendship denied

A dog that won't fetch
Nor defend the land
So lifeless and dull
I don't understand

My kind-hearted brother
Sits quietly with Downs
Unable to speak
Wearing miserable frowns

Parents who know
By the stripes on my back
I don't deserve
Their drunken attack

To whom do I turn
To hear my plea?
The King of Kings
Who died for me

I'm LOVED. Not just liked- passionately, ardently, ADORED with wild, reckless, selfless abandon. Jesus is so crazy about me that it overwhelms me every time I think about it. And believe me, His Love makes all the difference in the world.

:iconxlade:
This is very nice. However, i would have split the last stanze in half to the answer to the question wil have more impact on the reader. But that's just me. Again, very nice.
