My Heart

Poetry Article

My heart feels raw like a days old wound

That refuses ever to heal

Under the smile I put on my face

Are emotions I don’t want to feel

Sometimes it seems it’s all gotten better

And I’ve moved on from the pain

Then something happens to rip the scab off

And I’m back to broken again

I don’t want to be in this place anymore

I want to be made whole

I don’t want to feel like shattered pieces

Are all that’s left of my soul

I know that Jesus has a way through

I believe His power is real

I just don’t seem to know how to reach out

How to let Him fully heal

Something tells me deep inside

That He has so much more

There are lessons here I need to learn

That I’ve never even glimpsed before

That where the rawness of my heart now lies

Something entirely new belongs

Forged through the pain I’ve felt in His hands

What once was will be made twice as strong
