Finding beauty
Amidst the pain
The story
Of life
The secret
Hold fast
Hold on
Until the
Storm passes
Or teaches
You something
Today
You bore
A cross
Took on
Physical death
Brutality
The price
My sin
Wiped clean
Slate fresh
Because
You shed
Your blood
March
You were
A month
That tested
Everything in me
April
I don’t know
What even
To ask
Be still
My heart
As I
Walk along
A path
Unfamiliar
To me
In the swells
Lashing uneven terrain
Peace is found
For perfection
Is not present
In the Presence
Of hardship
Cracks splinter
When exhaustion
Supplants the
Need to be
A producer
Yet the need
Is in the
Hands of
Lowly and
Forgotten consumers
Who have nothing
To gain
But a quiet afternoon
Where commentary
Isn’t desired
It’s mission
Is simply being
One with self
And the thoughts
Thought
To be long buried
How wrong
Human
What isn’t met
Returns
