Isaiah 53:3

I love people so deeply 

Make them my chosen family 

For them to show they were only using me

Don’t care to discard me 

Talk down to me 

Narcissism always finds me

Have to remind myself these are powers and principalities 

But it hurts that it’s always the vessels closest to me

Hugging me one day 

then twisting the knife smiling 

Feel like it’s always confirming

They only love me

When they pull the strings

Always having to cut loose

And go back to being lonely 

Seeking God to console me 

Bc He was acquainted with this kind of grief 

the only One who loves me purely 

Won’t forsake me

Help me to forgive and love them like you did Jesus 

For they know not how they hurt me

psalm 3 ~ to my first love

 July 22, 22 I find myself starving for meat while ignoring the daily bread and water my Father offers me So quick am I to thirst for  temporary highs or lovers who will never satisfy  instead of looking to see my First Love consistently pursuing me with goodness and mercy  So eager to escape the flock getting stuck in the quicksand of self-sabotage  with wolves to my right and traps to my left always imagine idols saving me  but its always my Good Shepherd's hand pulling me out of pits I fall in or rather dig myself into of  Depression Anxiety Suicidality Addiction  Bitterness He gives me armor to wear but I tell Him I'm not strong enough for battle  He tells me it's okay it's not by my strength   the battle is His if I just have faith  He welcomes me back with open arms after I betray Him  Wonder why I always manage to forget how warm His embrace is So quick to harden my heart in rebellion  instead of hunger and thirst f...

September 2024 Mind boggling how easily you discarded me But I guess that's the patriarchy that turns women into tallies How many holes in one you can get Proving to your bros that you can score Winner winner new conquest for dinner Didn't you learn by now attention gets cheap? Doesn't bouncing from girl to girl get empty? Haven't you grown weary from all the meaningless ego stroking? Why can't you see sex with no trust, commitment, and loyalty disregards it as a sacred thing? God doesn't let women's grief go unseen His angels bottle up the tears and throw it at sea Until the pressure builds And eventually there's a great flooding  Told God yesterday would be your last chance to resurrect what we had but the tomb is forever sealed You made our grave but I still drop off flowers every day This mourning thing gets tiring when you don't know the expiration date and all your attempts to escape cause further delay Will try to make the anniversary  of the ...

Be my guest

August 26, 2024 I can never just greet my grief tell her to stay as long as she needs give her a shoulder to cry on  instead I drag her into a dark room and try to dress her up make her into a pretty presentable thing worthy of mine and other people's time and attention I wipe her tears before they can fall and tell her to put on a brave face that tears are unproductive turn it to poetry or testimony  and move on don't know how to make space for her feel like if I let her tears flow freely  it'll flood the house threaten if she doesn't shut up I'm gonna lock her up  hoping she'll go away  until the cycle starts over and I start to hear her bangs because sadness unseen turns into rage what was once my inner child needing space is now a monster that needs to be tamed
