The Words of a Broken Heart #2

Published by

I write and I read.
In my heart, I now bleed.

A tearful sorrow of what could have been is engulfed by my comfort in a God who’s unseen

A beautiful story began in the night and wound up in pieces I took no delight

Many a times I try my best to say
That in spite all that happens, to God I will pray

I struggle to come to terms with what could have been,
A beautiful story that will never be seen

A wordsmith, I’m gifted
With words I create
My words I will pen them and pray for a date
That I’ll clear my heart’s tension and set this record straight
On why this has happened, an endless debate

I struggle, I struggle
Some days I can’t relate
On why tragedy happened to what seemed like fate

The end beats beginnings my Bible tells me
But sweet in my thoughts was day one jamboree
Of laughter and snickers and warm bear hugs
Cut short so abruptly as though bit by a bug

It is well with my soul but is it well with my soul?
A hope burning bright is now put out and cold

It gets me, it gets me
At how things can get messy
When once upon a time, you’d ask who and I’d say bestie

Signed,

That A Lady

    […] I had read about C.S. Lewis during my Bible School days, but I hadn’t, at the time, read a book by him until a pal gifted me the paperback copy of “A Grief Observed” just before he left Kenya for the Netherlands. In the book’s foreword, Doughlas H. Gresham writes, “This book is a man emotionally naked in his own Gethsemane.” The gift was clearly inspired by the Holy Spirit as I was going through the motions of grief at the time, unbeknownst to me. I was a caricature of myself; for though my outward person was flourishing, my inner person was gaunt. […]
