Array ( [sid] => 101707 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Fight with Death [time] => 2005-07-20 08:26:49 [hometext] => A poem of lost faith and the fight to get it back....Steve [bodytext] =>
I’ve had questions of life
Of were is my place
Lost in the dark
Alone in disgrace
Pain that I brought
From a loss in my heart
Pain that I bought
That ripped me apart
Death I took
Like pieces of gold
I handed my life over
And gave him control
But what did I get
And what did I gain
A short little life
Is all he has to claim
he rules are lives
As we’re filled with sin
he rules this world
Tell we reach the end
But think for a minuet
And give God a chance
Let Him come in
And release this trance
For He offers life
That’s filled with love
And He offers a love
that comes from above

Our sins are greed
That take over are life
Hidden in pleasure
That are so hard to find
he masks them so well
And they feel so right
But we no inside
For we start to die
We feel the evil
As it comes to life
To take control
And take over our life
It’s a hard fight
And its only begun
I’ll give Him a chance
And be with Him as one
He’ll never leave me
Event if I stray
He will always wait
For me to come back His way
Life is hard and its hard to trust
But I’ll look through the darkness
And give Him my trust

I like the way you worded this one Steve...There's a positive vibe in it, and I'm glad, because you need your faith right now, more than ever...Good write my friend.
