The last few miles of the way <br />Seeming to linger for eternity <br />My soul grows weary <br />A whisper is heard in the wind <br />And I know He is beside me <br /> <br />The tears they fall like ever ceasing rain <br />The burden heaver than before <br />Not able to withstand the load <br />Then I hear a soft whisper in the wind <br />And I know He is with me <br /> <br />I stumble and fall <br />My legs weary from this heavy load <br />I no longer wish to carry on <br />I feel the soft breeze carry the whisper <br />And I know He is beside me <br /> <br />A sword has cut right through my heart <br />Betrayed by the ones I love <br />Tears and cries for help fill my being <br />I hear and gentle voice and an invisible hand <br />And I know He is with me <br /> <br />I don’t wish to go on, I can’t! <br />Devastation and heartache consume my soul <br />My fist clinches and I pound the path <br />Why have you deserted me….It’s too much to carry! <br />Then the whisper speaks more than before……. <br /> <br />Much more than I, The Son of God bore? <br />Remember I will never leave you I am always with you <br />My Comforter has been by your side every step of the way… <br />I will not give you more than you can bear… <br />You only needed to ask for strength<br /><br />Patricia Gale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-last-few-miles/
