Surrounded by pain and suffering
My eyes … I looked away
Trying to find sense and purpose
My mind confused, my faith gone astray.
Of God a stranger, my soul in tears
I dropped my fears in an ocean of uncertainties
The news on the papers scared me to death
No reason, no meaning, no relieve to my flesh.
Remove the debris, pick up the litter, bury the dead!
Reach for the survivors lying ahead!
Existencial summons, I could not defy
Love is the word I cannot deny.
My cry, my plea “ Am I strong enough to beat this wave? ”
But then, love lifted us up from the grave.
Yes, you are more than just 'strong enough' It is a very beautiful poem thought provoking Thanks for sharing, my friend Love ata ps: and i agree 10++++++++

True love and profound faith can lift up a soul to heaven but one has to struggle. Well done1
beautiful... yes, love can lift one up from the grave.... you may want to correct the spelling of existential although in spanish it is existencial...
Great work...you revealed the greatness of love...! ! thanks alot.
