Heaven's Worth

Heaven's Worth

I understand my fate--
to struggle all my life,
to bear a heavy weight,
to deal with stress and strife.

I keep waiting for the light,
but darkness is all I see.
It’s always an uphill fight
to keep my sanity.

One day there will be a reprieve
from all this pain on earth.
When worldly ways I leave
to finally know Heaven’s worth.
