Just a few corrections to start:

Paragraph 2: should be Folgers. Not folders.

Paragraph 7: should be denomination. Not dominations.

The fact that things rhyme does not necessarily make for a great write. Some of the verses are truly cringeworthy though they do indeed rhyme. Like : you cant swim through adversity when you have no fins. Really? Maybe less is better when the rhymes are ludicrous.

I can relate to your stress and heavy burden. You mentioned TJ Watt, the Defensive Player who was injured several times and the lack of support.

Well done

Gypsy

Depression is becoming the way of the world these days. People not having enough money to pay the bills and feed their children. Some losing their homes and entire families in the earthquakes, and fires. I'm afraid it's going to get worse before it ever gets better, if it ever does. Keep fighting, Charity. :)) Sandra

Charity,

This is an excellent Free Form Poem. You have a special gift for creating thought-provoking spoken word poetry with powerful messages that universally resonate.

Note: Use the advanced editor link and make the text bigger and change the font. It will improve readability.

All the best,

Eugene

Yes, I'm in a position to swap. Constant chronic pain from losing my leg. Not being able to walk. Losing my sight. How's that for a swap? You appear to be suffering from depression. "Fear, the only way out is through." Think of someone else that is doing it tougher than you. Focus on getting well by passing your burdens to the Lord. "He ain't heavy, he's my brother." K xx

    Thanks for your review. Good to hear from you. I'm sure you could swap your physical pain with mines. Maybe not emotional.

    When I read your work, my heart fills will love for you. We can't look back and even tho' we are battered and bruised, God said he would never give us more than we could handle. "Let go and let God." He cares so much for you. Love, Kay xx

Sometimes life can be too much to bear, but always remember that it's still worth the effort to keep going. Everyone has had dark times, but I still believe in the light at the tunnels end. Thanks for sharing.

Your poem as always is quite powerful and descriptive enough to understand, written in a laud voice calling for support to make less the burden life places on man. I am glad to know you still have faith in God which will surely relieve the weight. Well done, dear Charity. Thanks for sharing your word. Lol.

To me this poem is a cry for help in a world that is becoming more and more unbelievable. I have a depressing feeling that this will not end in a good way. The world is extremely polarised. Thanks for sharing. Ulla:)))
