My bright always
never
my perpetual victory
annihilated
all that I had hoped for
gone
I remember
over and over
my mind locked
in misery
cast out wandering
stillborn expectations
the poison of bitterness
begetting deformed memories I cannot stop
and I sink down
down in the choking dust
Yet
my shattered soul won't let you go
Yet
I turn back
Yet
I still dare to hope
Yet
I bare my envenomed heart for
Your love never wanders
Your compassions
great love, tender, merciful, pity full
like a mother with helpless child
they never fail
they are new
delivered anew
every morning
as the sunrise
sparkling on newborn manna
absolute, unfailing hope
You are my exuberant share
therefore
I will travail
writhe
twist
bring forth
the birthing you desire
I wait longingly for
You
