If any of you have ever felt this way, this poem is for you. Know that God is there for you, and He will hear you when you cry out to Him, no matter what state you're in. He understands your pain and your problems.  

 Hope for You Tonight

They walk away,
and leave their bitter words behind.
You’re left there all alone,
no hope left for you to find.
 
Your heart is broken,
you have nothing to hold on to
but the hurtful words spoken
and the pieces your heart’s crumbled into.
 
Their hateful words sting,
their awful deeds cut deep your heart.
The pain is lingering
from those words, few, but tart. 
 
You feel the need to get even,
after all they’ve done to you.
It seems unfair they can injure you so, then
only right you should wound them too.
 
It hurts something awful,
with all your might you want to scream.
But when with pain you’re full
you feel you can’t do anything.
 
You’re frozen, you feel numb.
You see and feel nothing but the ache.
You thought that you could trust them,
until these wounds they decided to make.
 
Your closest friends betrayed you,
vengeance is what you seek.
Your family turned their backs on you,
you’re all alone, scared and meek.
 
You bury yourself in your pain,
it seems there’s nothing else to do.
Your life’s been ruined with shame,
Everything’s gone, why not take your life, too?
 
There’s no one you can talk to,
no one you can trust.
“No one understands!” says you,
and hide from all, it seems you must.

The risk is too great to take
of them failing you again.
You’re confused, and you ache,
From doing something awful you can hardly refrain.

There is One you can turn to,
Who can help you out of your pain.
He can help you forgive, too,
And even trust them once again.
 
There’s a promise to cling to,
For He understands it all.
All this would happen, He knew,
He knew that you would fall.
 
You fell, and now He’ll catch you
and wipe away your tears.
He understand what you’re going through,
He went through the same thing, though it’s been many years.
 
His friends and family betrayed Him, too.
He forgave them right away.
Cry out to Him tonight, He’ll hear you
and take your pain away.
 
And though it takes time to heal,
away the pain will slowly seep.
In His arms, peace and comfort you feel,
and in His arms is where you He’ll keep.
 
 There’s hope tonight,
through the tears and the fog.
Hope pierces through the night
Just cry out to God.
