I composed this poem as a favor to my friend, he asked me to make him a poem entitled this. I don’t know why and I’m not sure what he (you) really feels but this is how the poem came up.

I hear the rain falling on the roof

My tears rush out from my eyes

Gushing down on my cheeks

I taste the tears as it flows over my lips

It’s bitter, bitter when all else fails

 

The storm drifted away my dreams

Thunders roar filching my strength

Lightning strike heisting my hope

Floods wash away my desire to cope

It’s tragic, tragic when all else fails

 

Mountain high touching the clouds

How could I summit up high?

When sharp stones on the trail

Wounded my feet to bleed

It’s painful, painful when all else fails

 

When all else fails…what could I do?

I will soar up high reaching the peak

I will strive to push heaven and earth

I will surge the wave to calm the sea

I will trust in you oh God to rise up again

    Touching, even if unrelated to your friend’s life.
