The Meek

Have you ever just been stuck

somewhere in a situation when 

nobody it seems is around, and you

 have nowhere that you can turn? It

 kind of feels like you are sitting alone

 in classroom all by yourself while

 failing all of the lessons learned? Or

 you are trapped like a drowning rat 

on a ship in the middle of the night 

lost on a foreign ocean that is going

 down? Maybe even feel like you are 

a hamster who is caught in a tiny cage

 on a spinning wheel and you are

 always running around and round?

 Even waking up in the morning to an

unfamiliar place looking all around you

 and not remembering how you got 

There wondering where you really are

 and then screaming out in a lonely

 desperation yet making not a sound?

 Have you ever felt that the world was

 closing in around you so much it was

 hard for you to breathe, choking and

 gasping for air while waiting for the

 end to come while falling down to

your knees? Looking up to the sky and

 asking God when will it all finally end

thinking that we are only human we

 only have bones that will break we 

are not a rubber band. Have you ever 

been so lonely you start to talk to 

the voices that are coming from 

within your head or make believe your

 loved ones are sitting down at a

 table with you having conversations 

even though they are dead? Does it 

feel like to you that no matter what

 decisions in your life that you ever

 make, the other choice was always

 better no matter how long you took

 to debate? Well if you shook your 

head yes to agree then you are very

 much not alone, life down here on 

this rock is hard no matter who you are

 it is just something that we ourselves

 need to eventually learn, so when you

 feel like giving up on life, raising the

 white flag, and throwing in the towel

 always remember just one single thing

 before you do anything, there is always 

somebody else out in the world who is 

in worse shape than you, so get down 

on your knees put your hands together 

and pray. For they say that God will

 only give us what we can take and 

nothing more and if you open up your 

heart to him he will give you the hope 

and strength, to get though even the 

worst of storms still standing on our 

feet and remember it is not the strong 

who shall inherent the earth....

BUT THE MEEK.
