At the end of my rope with nowhere to go,
It's been years since I hung here last
neither then nor now was it a blast!
but this time I cannot entertain letting go
another life depending on me is what I know.
but the despair is real
and I've no God to pour my heart out to
If there is one
my hearts welfare
is not a concern
if it was
my prayer to retire from desire
something I already and don't need to earn
instead I am full
of hopeless heart killing yearn.

It's a horrible place to be aims.

I remember being told that God helps those who help themselves... If that is so there isn't any need for any God as far as I can see. I have not seen God help anyone so far, and I've been around a while. I've seen people helping others however.

As always a well written and heartfelt piece my friend... And some good rhyme too.
