Pressure
squeezing you, relentlessly, no care, and no shame!
Your walls, they just cave in, one down...
now two, there goes the third, finally the fourth.
You feel so hopeless as the dust burns your eyes.
Blood shot, and dry, till the flood gate opens.
You cry and you cry, and you reach out...
but your arms, they don't reach anyone, you are alone.
You cant carry on any longer, and than it gets worse!
You watch the same thing happen to a loved one!
You hear their cries, meshing with your own.
You fear for them, and want them to have joy.
Your hopeless, their hopeless,
Lord why does this happen?
Brother dont you dare let those legs collapse!
You stand strong, you know your on the rock!
Dive into the Word, you can be refreshed!
Brother I love you, and you deserve the best!
Joseph you press on, with that amazing heart of yours,
Joseph theres a shepherd, He'll guide you to the end.
Be patient, and let your life song play on,
the devastation of your tune ending, Joe, I will not have it!
You are loved my brother, by oh so many,
great plans God has for a soul such as yours!
I could not imagine having a greater younger brother. The life he lives is a life of love for others. Hes so worn down by school, the stress gets to him. Today he wanted to say goodbye. I cant imagine him doing it! I have a lot of friends that are in so much pain as well. So this poem goes out to Joe and my hurting friends. Actually to anyone who struggles greatly with depression or just stress and sadness. We do have a shepherd that loves us, no matter what we've done. He can carry you, and get you back on your feet in a place of great joy. You just need to humbly accept it, and let Him get you there. Im so sorry for whatever is causing the pain! YOU ARE LOVED AND NOT TRULY ALONE!!!!!!! Please please please dont end it, God wants to use YOU!!!
