The reason the word 'bitch' is used is because of how i felt at the time of writing. No offense is meant or given. But the word is integral to the piece. . Without it the poem is meaningless. I read it at church, and had praise for its honesty.
Life's a ,
But it will not go,
Like an itch,
It grows and grows,
Unless you know
How to treat it
And delete it,
Start all over again;
Yes, life’s a ,
But you’ll never understand,
Unless you take a stand
To grab hold of the hand
That makes life better,
Like a stitch in time,
All sublime,
Take a look at life
As the light shines
Before the darkness swallows,
Life can be a ,
But if you scratch it as an itch,
It'll go away, yet return,
So, take your life
And take a flight to the mountain top,
Give every breath
And every step
A reason to live,
For life is better than this,
Take a hold of the proffered hand
And lift your head
Seek the Lord of a better land,
Let's open our eyes
And know that life is rich,
When trusting the Saviour of all things,
Give heart and soul
To live the life he gives,
For life is rich,
Forget that itch,
See how the stitch scars,
Yet ignites the stars,
Giving life a reason to be rich
Now that you find
There is no switch
Taking you forward
Toward the glory
That shares life with the world,
Because life is rich
When it’s with the Lord.
