How do you deal with pain?
Well, you cry it out. You speak it, you shout it or you whisper it. You do what you can to take it out of your bones.
You let go.
Then, you forgive.
And you’ll repeat, everyday from then on: “it’s going, it’s going, it’s going”. And one day it will be. Gone. Forever!
It might take a day or a month or a year; but it will be gone!
Skin.
I’m showing skin
That can be wounded,
Veins that can be drained
Of blood.
Tears.
I’m shedding tears
That can be seen,
Insecurities that can be
Misunderstood.
Bruises.
I’m barring bruises
That are still hurting,
Wounds that can be
Opened.
Thoughts.
I’m sharing thoughts
That can be frightening,
Dreams that can be
Crushed.
Hopes.
I’m sharing hopes
I don’t believe in,
Sometimes Faith I do not
Have.
Fears.
I speak of fears
That have invaded
Anxieties that make me
Drown.
Trust.
This is what I give you
When I bare all that I am.
I’m vulnerable,
Not fragile!
But through his grace
By faith
I stand.
