River of Love

River of Love

A Poem by StayAnchored

Behind the river of fears there is a river of tears which is filled with the sorrow of all the times you've cried


You see the image of when Sally hit you

You see the image of when you found out your best friend was dating your crush

You see the image of when your father died while away at war and you cried yourself to sleep for many nights to follow

You see the image of when you were left pure and blameless at the alter

You see the image of when you had a miscarriage and mourned for your little girl

You see the image of when you where questioning if God really existed

But beyond this river is a river of loved, filled with all the glorious moments within your life

 

You see all the good times you had playing with Sally.

You see yourself forgiving and making up with your best friend.

You see yourself and all the wonderful times you had with your father.

You see yourself forgiving and forgetting the man who left you bawling at the alter.

You see you and your husband after finding peace with yourselves and God

But best of all you see yourself walking with Jesus while holding your precious baby girl and waking all throughout the gates of heaven

This is really great! I love how it kinda tells a story in a way! They start out so sad and just focusing on all the bad things and at the end you showed all the bad things turning to good. I really love it! :)

No Problem(: You deserve lovely comments(: keep up the great work.
Beautifully written. In the first line, I think you meant to say "sorrow" instead of "horrow" but that's the only problem I see. I love how you take all the sorrows and make them happy. The whole thing is good enough to quote. Thank you for sharing.
