Hey, just started a poem. It is not anywhere near finished....let me know what ya think. I plan to use this as a testimony tool somewhere down the road.

It's so hard to tell you my feelings,
The burdens I've carried so long.
I wanted you to know,
but I just so alone.
I felt trapped in a bubble.
I thought I was the only one.

I waited for the abuse to end,
But it happened time and time again.
Why was He doing this to me?
He claimed to love me.

He preached in our church and throughout our community.
He worked with teenagers so well,
No one suspected anything.
He coached the basketball team,
And he took them to state.
Who was this person he worked so hard to create?

I tried to act normal, perfectly fine,
But I was so confused. I walked a very tight line.
I swayed back and forth and almost broke down.
The only hope I held onto was my heavenly crown.

I knew that God loved me.
The Bible said that He did,
But why would He let this happen when I was just a kid?
Satan used this tactic to place doubts in my heart.
Even with so many emotions,
The Destroyer knew just where to start.
 
IT SEEMS THAT THIS PERSON NEEDS TO ASK JESUS TO HELP THEM TO FORGIVE THE PERSON THAT DID THIS TO THEM
SO THEY CAN BE HEALED AND GO ON IN GOD
 
This person was me and I have forgiven him. I am not finished with the poem
 
the most wonderful thing is= Jesus isn't done with us either, huh? our lives a constantly unfolding in a moments time...
 
so sorry cabbage for the abuse...poem was very heartrending...
 
It is okay. God has showed me a lot of things through the abuse. God is never done working with us :) Praise the Lord!
 
this poem is very touching
so sorry for what you gone through
 
Like I said, what I have gone through is a bad thing, but God has used my experience to touch the lives of many other people. I am NOT touching other people's lives, but GOD is! I am so thankful for what He has done in my life.
 
This poem has some errors. Let me revise.
