 And secondly, she’s sorry 

We’re sorry for the person we became, for the doubts in our heads 

For the lonely nights where we cursed your name yet all you ever did was hold us and sing us lullabies

You tucked our sorrow into bed and threw joy into our heads

We didn’t deserve this but there is no time for regrets when you’re drowning in a sea of grace

When the greatest artist of all time is holding you in his arms whispering my child, my child Come home! 

Something in you begins to shift 

And it’s the devil trembling

At the voice of our God

and you never intended to move but suddenly you find your feet sprinting in full speed to the altar where you have no time to collapse to your knees before God swoons in and carries you to a world you never thought existed! 

And he whispers to you My child, my child

And suddenly the girl with the pencil does not exist in the grey house anymore

And the girl with the guitar does not sit in the identical house alone

Because now

Because now 

She is home

 •breakables one beat after another  it bangs in my chest  like a drum without a sound  without a bass without a rhythm  i’m the only one who can feel it’s aching thunder  like something trying to burst through the skin  who is behind the sticks? I really will never know  no cymbals no shells but i know the feeling of this drum  it doesn’t stop until the song ends  and it’s only the beginning

3-10-23 Despite It All

 i’m wrapped up  and here I am living despite the suffocation  I don’t deserve this  and here I am being loved despite the hardness of my heart  I forget how to walk  and here I am walking on the waters before me and ground that shakes  I’ve turned away  and here you are standing before me /despite it all/
