| Pain, Slowly eating you alive, Aching day after day, enveloping your life so you know no other. Struggling to find reason, to believe......to have faith. And then it happens. You discover that you are not alone. There is someone there to hold you, to share with you, to love. The pain lessens as the burdens are shared amongst two. Healing of the past begins. Slowly you begin to believe.... you dare to dream. Only to have it snatched away in an instant. The dreams quickly fade away. The pain rapidly returns and is more intense than ever. Realizing that people do not want to share pain. This knowledge has caused a different pain. A pain that takes away hope..... causes dreams to fade away..... and attempts to destroy faith. Praying for strength to deal........ Oh my Lord.....please help me! Written 01/03/02 by Karla |
| A New Day Each morning I awake And realize that a new day has come. A day of bright sunshine or even of stormy skies. As I struggle to climb out of bed I realize that it is yet another day filled with pain and struggles. There were NO miracles that occurred overnight. No pain free days despite my constant prayers. No solutions to my problems came through the night. My life today is the same as yesterday. A quiet prayer is said asking for release. And then I get up And paste on a happy smile. For anger only intensifies the struggles of my life. It is best left to smile each day So that I can wake again tomorrow Written by Karla 01/26/02 |
