  1. Seeing Ourselves Clearly

    • By Lauren Bowman
    • Published by Family Friend Poems November 2020 with permission of the Author.

    in Short Poems

    It’s difficult to take in the entirety of something
    when you are standing inside of it.
    Valleys are best seen from peaks.
    Mountains from their bases.

    One has to find themself, I agree, and not be totally reliant on somebody. I know because I was never allowed to live freely; now my independence I treasure dearly.

  5. God Is Still Right There

    • By Bethny Ricks
    • Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.

    No matter our situation or circumstance. Whether we are walking atop hope, full of peace, wrestling with fear, or overwhelmed with life in general...God is always present. In our victory and turmoil His concern and love for us never waivers. And through all my weeping, these roads paved with tears and joy, God has never failed me. Or forgotten me.

    in Faith Poems

    our weeping may only endure
    for the night, but
    even when joy finally drapes
    our sunrise

  10. Her Cup Never Ran Dry

    • By Bethny Ricks
    • Published by Family Friend Poems March 2021 with permission of the Author.

    Rest. Keep leaning. Keep praying. Keep inhaling, and then find the courage to exhale.

    These are the words that skipped through my tired mind 30 minutes ago. And all I heard back in my soul is “I see you, and I will refill your cup. My well never runs dry.”

    in Faith Poems

    no matter how weary
    she kept pouring

    but her cup never ran dry, for God

  11. The Comfort Of Pain

    • By Blake Auden
    • Published by Family Friend Poems April 2021 with permission of the Author.

    As a poet, I’ve grown used to embracing pain; to treating it as the fuel I need to create. These days I hold sadness to my chest like it’s another organ, something I’m terrified to be without. This doesn’t mean I’m always depressed or continually sad, but it does mean that I’ve learned to rely on pain I’ve already experienced. Sometimes, I wonder if I’ve begun to seek it out, to find new ways to shatter this thing behind my ribs.

    Live this way long enough and, eventually, the heartbreak begins to feel comforting; like an old friend. If I’m honest, i can’t help thinking it’s the only thing I can rely on not to leave. It’s the closest thing I have to home.

    in Poems about Sadness

    Live with it
    long enough
    and pain begins
    to feel familiar,

  14. The Strength In You

    • By Blake Auden
    • Published by Family Friend Poems April 2021 with permission of the Author.

    I’ve spent my entire adult life struggling with anxiety, always worrying about the worst case scenario. Even now I don’t know how to love something without being terrified of losing it. If I’m honest, some days I feel like I’m built entirely of glass.
    But I think there may be something profound in suffering; in the realisation that you’re stronger than you thought. I think back to the things I’ve been through, and while those experiences left their mark, I take solace in the fact that I’m still here; still pulling breath into these lungs. Maybe strength is a label that’s only earned from resilience; from enduring.
    The truth is, I had no idea how much I could take until the world showed me. There is strength here, even if I never wanted to find it.

    in Poems about Life Struggles

    There is
    a strength in you
    you haven’t even
    begun to find.

    So true in that we really don't know how one will react until one has been there and has done it! Suffering is an important life experience. Great poem, thanks.

  15. Dear Diary

    • By Bethny Ricks
    • Published by Family Friend Poems November 2020 with permission of the Author.

    When the cares of this life overtake me, these are the words I choose to remember and say. As the tears roll down my face, leaving their imprint on overworked paper, and my fear wrestles with my breath, I remind myself of who fuels my strength and the beauty of my faith. For through it all, no matter what I have faced, or the length of the waiting, my God is still good and will do exactly what He says.

    in God Poems

    in my weeping, He is still good
    in my fear, He is still good
    in my weariness, He is still good
    in my pain, frustration, hurt, and shame
