Happy Monday, all!
Please know that this story – this incredible love – is absolutely real, and extended to you. God loves you more than you can fathom.:)
How He can think
I’m
Lovely
Is a
Mystery to me.
That He would
Choose
This
Wobbly soul
To fight for
Him and
His
Seems like an act of…
What?
He knows I’m not
Enough.
He knows that I’m not
Strong.
He knows the
Winds
That pound this
Heart
Near steal its beat
Some days
And yet
He chooses me.
Seems like an act of…
What?
He feels each
Hurt
More deeply than
My own heart
Ever will.
He weeps
When
Self-love
Steals
My heart
And yet…
He wants me still.
Clothes catching on the
Brambles
That are tearing at His
Skin
He fights
For me
And takes me as
His own.
He stays.
This is an act of…
Love.
It leaves me
Breathless
Tearful and
Completely forever
In love.

Wow. This poem expresses exactly how I’ve been feeling lately in words that I couldn’t put together! Is it alright if I copy this poem and use it… somewhere?!?
Thank you SO much for doing this, Laurel! I think your writing is getting better the farther along you go into this!! 🙂
