[tri-wings] Not sure what I think of this

Not sure what I think of this.  Because I feel that it is  sometimes easier to 
say "I count my blessings and their are people worse off than me".  Than "yep, 
I feel like poo, I have a need to feel my pain/anger/hurt etc and work through 
it to let go of it".

But anyway, thought I would send it to you all anyway. Had it sent to me.

I can only imagine
What it's like to sacrifice
How it feels to do without
What it takes to pay the price
To offer all I have
Unto others with a need
I can only imagine
For myself, I live in greed

I can only imagine
What it's like to be alone
How it feels to be rejected
How to get by on my own
To never share a secret
To feel empty deep inside
I can only imagine
For myself, I live in pride

I can only imagine
What it's like to be abused
How it feels to lie awake
Feeling angry, tired and bruised
To have no friend to turn to
Filled with rage I can't release
I can only imagine
For myself, I live in peace

I can only imagine
What it's like to know such pain
How it feels to wake each morning
With a past I can't explain
To live a constant nightmare
That no else can parallel
I can only imagine
But for them, they live in Hell

ABOUT THE POEM

At times she feels like her life is complicated, like God has allowed more grief
and suffering to come her way than He should have. But in her heart, she knows
she should be thankful that she has access to opportunities that others will
never even dream of having, that she should be glad she even has loved ones,
even if they are taken away from her.

She has had painful things happen to her, and she knows what sorrow feels like,
but there are always those who have been hurt deeper than her. To them she can
only offer her prayers, and her sympathy.
