Poetry: Tragedy

by Crystal Patterson

Created on: July 07, 2010

One day all seems good and fair.

Until, arrives some news with devastating harm.

Touches my very soul.

Then life is so different.

What once was important. Now holds no value. 

My mind has lost all focus.  All direction is gone.

I become a wonderer in life.

Trying to understand the meaning of it all.

I ask myself," What can I possibly, do to effect the out come to favorable?"

It all feels so beyond my control. It is then I drop to my very knees and beg God to intervene.

Mercy I scream! My heart can't bare this nightmare that I awaken daily to.

Take this burden from me.  The shackles I beg unchain.

It is all to much to bare. 

 My shoulders collapse under it's mighty strength.

When the hands of tragedy strikes terror upon my soul.
