Saved

Being saved by God.

Saved

Strangling me,

The grips of death are

 

Their nooses are tightening

 

I’m in a car speeding down the highway to hell

Little do I know,

I’m about to crash

 

Crashing one and for all

No returning

 

Jesus pushes me away

Away from the danger

Away from the crash

 

He takes the pain

The ache.

He saved me.

First, I'd like to say that I agree with Stephen, it'd be a great dramatic touch and would keep the flow you have by breaking down the sentence 'I'm in a car, speeding down the highway to hell'... and I'll agree his suggestion was perfect.

Other than that, the poem was great. I liked how death had a tight grip on your life, as like a noose around the neck... yet no matter what death put you through, Jesus was there to save you - ease your pain. I loved this and this is what I imagine happens to those that don't make in car crashes... I believe Jesus comes to save us from the pain and agony.

A powerful poem with a good message. Death can be easy. Life is very hard. But sometime the good things can make up for the bad. A excellent poem.
