Languish

Follow me to the reservoir,

I will not teeter.

Feeling for You

I am grieving for a friend who is getting bullied by her molester. She was molested when she was little, but this person is still in her life. I just can't imagine. The constant reminder that it happened and the constant fear.

This is the thing that bothers me the most....always afraid. This is a constant battle, no relief. Please, Lord surround her with your protection.

Things Seem Bleak

Beseech

There are roads not taken,

paths not worn down.

Are you on one?

Wicked Eyes

My only desire is for you to face up to what you did.

You broke my spirit way before I could remember.

You speak in riddles trying to see what I remember.

Your curse of inflicting pain on your own children

ends with me --- I will never.

Exasperated

You're pushed to the brink,
relying on all your inner strength.
More patience, please.

But why must we feel fear?
I know my nerves are frazzled,
I know I am so beyond tired.

I am reaching for more strength,
I am reaching for more peace.

Who's Wrong?

What do you do when someone is rude to you?

Do you think that they might have something wrong with them?

I never do; I always, always think it's my fault.

I am so sick of feeling like everything bad around me is
my fault.

Who decided I'm the scapegoat?

Did anyone even request my permission?

I'm done feeling this way.

We have done nothing wrong.

We did not deserve to be abused.

We do not deserve to be bullied by every notion.
