If You Still Can.......... Poem by RIC BASTASA

it is not that you suffer
that God wants you to pay for your sins,
far from it, how did you ever know
God's mind?
we are all here, that is the only fact
that we know,
rowing the same boat, to uncertain
destinations,
we live, we enjoy, we suffer, we doubt
these are the facts that we are in,
we have no one to blame, no one to thank for
except Him.
We met face to face the inevitable, and
whatever happens
this i think i must say,
keep the faith, learn to survive, accept
whatever it is,
and then move on, if you still can.
