Leaving The Light On Poem by Lauren Coles

People are crying out in pain,
People don't know who they can trust,
People hide secrets,
There is someone who knows your story,
That's God,
I know what you are thinking why does God let bad things happen to good people,
God wanted to see how you react to hardships,
There's someone willing to help you,
Go to a school counselor,
You shouldn't be embarrassed to ask for food stamps,
Mothers should consider a open adoption instead of á closing adoption to the baby will get to see their mother,
God never judges you for what you have done in your past He teaches you how to build a better life for yourself,
It's your choice to turn the lights on.
