Hard
What is hard for me
Dying
Dying to myself
For a greater cause
I don’t have to face
Danger
Danger because my faith
Is not popular
What is hard for me
Giving
Giving up my wants
To help another
I may have to face
Rejection
Rejection of friends
They don’t understand
What is hard for me
Loss
Loss of what could be
For a greater cause
I don’t want to face
Confusion
Confusion of ideals
I don’t understand
What is hard for me
Focus
Focus on the goal
To honor the Lord
Give me the strength to face
Life
Life brought by my death
Your death on a cross

Garrett,
Did you write this?
By Garrett, November 15, 2008 @ 11:44 am
Yes, I did write this. I made a comment to a friend that poetry must rhyme, and she strongly disagreed, and finally convinced me. Then I felt inspired to write this one night.

Garrett, wow, that was really good.
No, poetry doesn’t have to rhyme. I think it is pretty both ways. You did a great job with yours.
God bless,
Brooke.
