The Cry Of The Weary

My Father told me, "Be Strong!"
The world will keep on keep on beating you so face it head-on;
My mother kept telling me "Be kind."
The world will keep on testing you so leave the bad things behind.

I stood my ground,
And I braved all my storms;
The rain keep on falling,
The cruel wind keep whistling on.

Father, my knees are weak,
My hands are bloodied
For they are merciless in every streak;
Mother, my heart is broken and full of sorrow,
With every words they utter, it is pierced with an arrow;

I wept and faced the world alone,
With a fearful heart and a broken soul;
I stood my ground and held my shield on,
Still the rain kept on falling,
And the cruel wind whistled on and on.

note: I hope you like what I wrote. This is what I feel tonight. To ease whatever it is that Im feeling and for me to face the world again.

You must be weary, but that is life. It is a battle we fight everyday. For me, I take comfort on the thought that there are people who go through way worst than me. Let's Count our blessings and we will see... there are lots of things to thankful for.

Cheers and smile! ❤ @arrliinn

Thank you. Im looking forward to the days when everything is all better. 😊

Wow just wow! This poem clearly defines the feelings of hardship in life. But rest assure all storms and troubles in life will soon pass. Hang in there and have faith. Remmember that the Lord is looking above us and He sees much wider view up there. God bless.

Thank you very much. I just hope God will give us all the strength we need to keep on living. 😊

You have a beautiful way with words, rhythm, and composition. I love this!

Thank you. 😊

I like this piece, especially the last line :) I can relate too. #adulting

Thank you. It is tiring but we have no choice but to fight on. Goodluck to us!

You're right.
