The moment before something breaks
You try to hold it together
But in a moment it slips away 
And crashes at your feet 
All you’re left with is broken pieces 
Of something that was beautiful 
The pieces cut your heart 
And left it bleeding and worn 
But maybe if you take all the pieces 
And give them to God 
He’ll make something beautiful 
Out of the brokenness
Thoughts from quite awhile ago.
 

The moment before something breaks
ReplyDeleteI thought strength would hold it all
I would stand for my Lord
Maybe I was Peter after all
And the wound I left on the servant's face
Was just like the ripping of my heart
When I saw my good intentions
Come alive before me
I broke it
While trying to hold it together
Neither scar could disappear
No matter whatever
Until Jesus
Touched the servant's ear
And my torn heart

And I thought He needed my help.
I am not the poet you are, Mikayla, but I wanted to leave you something to tell you how much I liked this one.
Well I don't care what you say, I think your poetry is awesome!
