Comments : Life's Battles

    by Poet on the Piano

    I love inspirational poems like this! I always seem to come across them too when I think I don't need to hear it, but I really do, if that makes sense? People may say the whole idea is cliche, of everyone facing a battle, but it's true and relevant for every single person. We all just may write about it differently since each of our stories are not exactly the same. Beautifully written and I believe faith saves, even if that hope is fading like you wrote, even if we doubt, there's still faith somewhere in our hearts. The ending lines were powerful as well because you encourage the reader that there is light, and that we don't have to rest in darkness, or believe that's the only place to be....

    One other part that made me think more deeply was this line:
    "a journey they must choose to travel."

    - This is actually something I've thought about before, but in regards to change. That we have to be willing to change, just like with this journey, we must choose to keep going on the path we believe in, put our confidence and trust in it, etc.

    Great write!
