"Holding Doors"
Written in kind of a grieving but gentlemanly way.
Once we get knocked down on our keysters.
She usually up to us too rise.
Rise!
Rise!
And, rise some more get your bruised butt out that door!
Your loving sister will show you the way!
And, with a little of Jesus's help?
Yes, you'll be all right that day!
...
Rich in theme and imagery as it flowed well and read well with No Grammar Issues.

Hi, this is a beautiful poem about you and your sister, who gave you a second chance. I suggested some revisions, but wasn't sure in some instances where to go, in terms of past and present tenses.

Here are my suggestions:

Everyone gone through the door
-->
Everyone went through the door

One day the pain too much
-->
One day the pain became too much

I cry to God above
-->
I cried to God above

Jesus He swoops down and then
-->
Jesus He swooped down and then

You help me to start again
-->
You helped me to start again

You help me off the floor
-->
You helped me off the floor

You wait til I find the door
-->
You waited til I find the door

***

I appreciate the way you cried out to God and Jesus, and I believe He answered you. You are receiving the help you need, the love you need, coming through that door.

The doors in the photo are so interesting, antique and somewhat damaged, but still so beautiful, and of course, functional. Great poetry!
