Lifes Pressures Poem by louis rams

Lifes Pressures

Rating: 5.0


so many tears i cry
and no one to dry my eyes.

so much pain that i go through
and i don't know what to do.

lifes pressures are getting to me.
is this the way it's meant to be?
so many people with cold hearts.
of this - i must be a part?

peer pressure, work pressure
money problems all around
and no answers to be found.
so i decided to turn to me
and to set myself free.

what is it that i believe in most
the answer was- THE FATHER, THE SON, THE HOLY GHOST.
so to my LORD i gave him my problems
and his words i will follow.

HE gave me a simple rule
and that i must use this tool.
resolve the problems one at a time
and you'll see that you'll be fine.

i did not build the universe all in one day
i took my time, and did not stray.
you must do the same as me
for your mind to be clear and free.

so i lined up my worries in a list
just so that i would not miss
all the things that bothered me
and this list was the key
to unlock all those doors that
stood in my way, if i did it day by day.

Reminds me of a story I heard way back of someone digging a hole to move their house over for a basement. The kid believed it could never happen but the kindly father convinced him that it would take no time at all. Through patience and just communicating with each other the kid was surprised as to how much they had accompliushed once he turned around. Life I find is excatly like that. Some can take it in stride and others have no patience what so ever. A good lesson I believe can always teach an old dog new tricks or a young dog patience.
