I Am tired & broken. 

Stuck in hiding. 

Fearful to shed light on what I feel should remain hidden. 

Myself. 

I cry out to you.

Heart full & surrounded.

Emotion.

Tears.

They are held & stored.

No Release.

I Am scared & doubt ridden.

A race I Am not sure can be obtained.

Embraced.

Who Am I?

Overcome.

Take a step into the unknown.

Guilt.

I Am sick & tired.

Stuck in past failures.

Scared.

Child cries out but no one rescues.

Alone.

Misunderstood.

Unable to speak.

I Am voiceless.

Seeking.

In the wrong places.

From people unable to give.

Love.

I Am wanting.

Waiting to be seen.

Where are you?

Silence.

You call me.

Softly.

Pursue me & my heart.

Burns.

I Am yearning for you.

Restore.

Knees bowed & outstretched arms.

Truth.

I Am seen by One.

Him.

The lover of my soul.

Triumph.

Led on a path of unknown steps.

Righteous.

I Am desired by Him.

Healed.

The pain in my heart.

Held.

I Am stepping & jumping.

Evolved.

New adventures shatter heavy chains.

Boundless.

I Am free to be.

Myself.

Scared to share & express.

Learn.

I Am called & growing.

Hopeful.

Expecting big mountains to crumble at my feet.

Authority.

I Am calling out to you.

Rejoice.

Determined to reshape a skewed mind.

Persevere.

I Am.
