Will You Let It Last

Will You Let It Last

A Poem by BrotherJackman
"

Going through pain in life there is always a time to mourn, but after a while it becomes your choice to move on but always remember, or hold on and carry pain with you that you could have forgotten.

"

Tough times don't last... Tough people do.

 

Unless you live your life in that time.

 

But life itself has no time limit.

 

Yet becuase I am just one person I feel I've been pushed to the limit.

 

So with all this pressure tears have been pushed to my eyes.

 

Yet my eyes are still dry like harsh desert sand.

 

Showing the wrong emotion attempting not to break down.

 

I am like a mountain at first sight with a cold chill, yet I'm just a cracked heart open to infection.

 

Infected and chained, trying to break away.

 

Only to find somone on the other end pulling harder than I can resist.

 

Wanting to be freed, yet too afraid to confront Him.

 

Wishing to have strength, just so it can be slowly diminished by Him.

 

I ask, "Why is He stronger. Why can't I pull away"

 

Finally I get a good look at Him, I stand there, frozen.

 

I know Him... Its me.

 

Tough times can last... if you let them...
