Tragedy

This world is full of tragedy
that we have never seen
despair and broken hearts
loss and broken dreams

and though we all are hurting
we stumble and we fall
we keep our saddness hidden
we show it not at all

all of us are broken
our lives just one big mistake
still we journey on
our happiness is fake

this world is full of tragedy
from which noone can hide
though we attempt to fix it
we are still broken inside

we patch our holes with fantasies
we believe will make us new
yet these patches cave in on us
and leave bigger holes in you

there is a cure out there
if you search through all your strife
and put your hope in Jesus
He will save your life

you cannot escape this tragedy
just look at poor old Job
but trust in good old Jesus
He will be your hope.

haha just wrote that then while deciding what to put in a post. Go me! It is very rare that I write a RHYMING poem! As you can probably tell! And yes, I am studying the book of Job in Bible study at the moment lol!
