WHY?

Dear God. Why am I here?
I see no reason for this fear
That each day that passes by
All I do is wait to die

My health has gone just like my friends
And all I want is this to end
All my family has passed away
And left me here for what I say

To be alone without a soul
Cannot be good so I’m told
For as each day does pass on by
I pray to God that I may die

I know he’s there to comfort me
But lord you know it’s hard to see
That life is good when your alone
And have no one to call your own

Please take me up to be with thee
to where my friends and family will be
Together again and be once more
The person I was and am no more

About this poem:
All my family has gone..they are all deceased..My children will not talk to me or acknoledge me....I walk alone through time without a purpose anymore..I go through the motions of life without rhyme or reason....

Breathe in... this~moment~in~time.

Just breathe, one moment at a time.

I give presence to your expressions of loneliness and sorrow.
Although I'm a stranger, I'll quietly sit with you here, if it helps....

Hi, thismomentintime,
What a tragic feeling this poem well conveys! The person I was and am no more, however, implies change; and, change can happen in either direction. So, swing the pendulum back in the other direction, one good poem and action at a time!

To all that read this, fear not as I am not suididal, for to burn in hell would be much worse than life here and now on earth.For those who know me know nothing of this as I show this side of me to no one...I am a happy person full of life still...I love my job as it keeps me sane and makes me happy as I am a special needs school bus driver and to see my children each day does make me feel better about life..For as bad as I may have it theirs is something they can not change or have any control over

Thank You,

for caring!!!!!!!!!!!

Every day I speak to someone who feels just like this...and every day I try to rally them with good cheer...but at 84, when everything is failing, this smart person is aware the end is gaining.....glad you have the young ones...they can make a great difference...Niahteddybear peace

Wow, what an amazing poem... Your feelings came forward and touched me... I am sad that this is the reality of life... but I am thankful that you realise that God is your only true friend and family... when the time is right He will take you... Try and sort things out with your children even if it is the last thing you do...
