listen my friend mark
you are at your turning point
and you don't even now it yet
everything you lost
i understand
we understand
what hurts the most is
my livelihood
MY JOB
it was taken
just like that
my family
friends
job
money
savings
all takes me into a
DEEP depression
if i let myself go there
and there are times i do
i have a shrink i have
been with
since my life was changed
just like that
as i woke up to get ready for work
then after 2 failed surgeries
while bed ridden
found a lump in my right breast
cancer
took both off

i ask you this
did you ever cry so hard
to want to feel God
i mean so hard
that the town could hear your wails
i wanted God
not my job
family
money
friends
possessions
but
Him
i ask to feel him
and i did
i'm not a crazy person
but a blessed one
to have my faith build
with the help of the people
ON THESE BOARDS
you reach out too
i am here
we are here
i won't go anywhere
we won't go anywhere
especially when you are
going through what we all have
at one point or another
you are not any different then the
rest of us
who
Want to feel God

be still
be silent
pray
listen to your dialogue
with Him
let it happen

keep searching
you are His child
we all are
do not let evil
win

it lurking all the time
just waiting for you
to give up your Faith
hang on as i do
do not give your soul to the devil
working real hard to just have
you at the edge of a cliff

be wise
heed to the warning

the suggestions expressed here
is all in good taste and real concerns
and intentions

at one point not long ago
i prayed to just die
i'll be at peace
but that is not the peace i am looking for
so i hang in
some days are better than others
and am learning everyday

to have been where you are now
I know
me
