Beyond Suffering...
exists freedom for troubled souls
a mythical world of enchanting beauty
giving comfort to broken spirits forlorn.
Beyond Suffering ...
hope's faithfulness brings peace
to distant contrite minds ever searching,
for love's promised happily ever after.
Beyond Suffering ...
time's enduring cherished memories
brings remembrance of good times past
where timeless wonderment stands still.
Beyond Suffering ...
surprise keeps true happiness alive
filling souls with friendship's blessing
encouraging lifelong bonds freely given.
Beyond Suffering ...
playful songs beautiful melodies
rescue aspiring dreams beyond distress
from loneliness to jubilance everlasting.
Beyond Suffering ...
divine perfection becomes one
in triumphant shouts of worshipful praise
lifting countless voices in spiritual refrain.
Beyond Suffering ...
life is born anew in fervent prayer
cleansing the heart, mind, body, and soul
in forgiveness life-changing joy evermore.

Author Notes
A poem inspired by the following verses:
1Pe 1:3-9
Blessed be our Father God who according to his great compassion has regenerated us again to a living hope through the resurrection of his son from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you who are protected by the power of God through belief, for a deliverance ready to be revealed in the last time, in which you greatly rejoice, yet a little while, if need be, grieving in manifold temptations; so that the trial of your faith might be found to praise and honor and glory at the revelation of his son whom having not seen, you love; in whom you exult with unspeakable and esteemed joy, yet not seeing, but believing, obtaining the goal of your belief: a deliverance of lives.
