What is behind the pain,
what causes so much sorrow
what makes someone not want . . .
to see the light of tomorrow?
What would cause anyone,
to take their very own life
what was their earthly burden
what was the crux of their strife?
What makes a person give up,
what causes them to lose all hope
why, oh why, was no one able to . . .
help them, to endure or cope?
Why would they rather die,
what was their fear and dread
what were their last thoughts
what images filled their head?
Why God ~ is there so much pain,
when will it all come to an end
why can’t everyone see Jesus . . .
as their ~ life-saving Friend?
