LOSS

LOSS

Heartache, sorrow, betrayal, grief, loneliness... trail
    tears of scorn.
Sleepless nights, fretting, self-loathing,
    mourning, depression, negativity:  be eschewed.  Bless the Lord, oh my soul!/1/
The Promised One sticketh closer than a brother, and/2/
    He will never leave or forsake His own./3/
He is the First and the Last/4/, the Beginning and the End/5/.
