A Scene From the Road of Grief

I walked the road of grief,

or more like I tried.

I stumbled and fell,

lay down and cried.

A brother came by and said:

"Get up and walk friend! Why lie in the dirt?"

I told Him I couldn't stand,

my heart had been hurt.

He knelt down beside me

and let me get it out.

Then He calmly told me

what this life is about:

"Walk the road of grief,

don't let it walk all over you.

Lean on Me,

because that's what friends do."

I told Him I couldn't,

He told me, "You can."

Then He stood

and gave me His hand.

He gave me His hand,

then gave me His shoulder.

Still I limped,

but kept moving forward.
