Unworthy

Unworthy

the soul
cries
pleading
for healing
healing
of mind,
& spirit
a renewing
of heart
a removal of
unpleasing obstacles
a continuing covering
of mercy and grace

just as the
desert begs for
rain
so does my heart
beg for the
removal of pain
open the heavens
and shower your
peace upon my soul
saturate
my being with you
make me whole

emotional
scarring
wounds
and cemented walls
for defensive combat
a war in which is
beyond exhausting
one which I can
never fight alone

no one
knows me, so perfectly
as the very one
which created me
piece the brokenness
back together
as you would
desire
remove the grit
breathe upon
my bleeding heart

strengthen with
comfort & joy
reassure me
with your
loving arms
letting me know
you alone
are carrying me
shielding me
from harm

my heart
my soul
cries out
renew
all of me
which will
forever be
so unworthy
