Dear Bitter, Broken, me, To the days that you have longed, but never received To the days that you have questioned, but never conceived To the days that you have sought freedom, yet still have not broken free. To the days you have sought outcome, yet still have nowhere to be. And to the days you have spent broken and battered; this might set you free So Dear bitter, broken, you; Courage, my friend. Don’t die wondering It might look like the end but this is only the beginning. We have to walk, even though it hurts. But we can take our time because I know it gets worse. Believe me, I get it. We’re blinded by what we see, yes I get it. A moment of silence for those who don’t get this. I pray to God “can I please just forget this” But now listen it won’t always be like this Don’t fall for the words the enemy has prescribed us with We’re consumed not immune to what we think is true To the pain we sustain because it makes us feel good So dear bitter, broken, me; You’re a time bomb awaiting to break lose. Confronting yourself wasn’t always the best thing to do, Aware of the guilt and falsity of disregarding this book I can’t bare its facts to what seems to be the truth. I can’t stand this. Why does it feel like I can never surpass this. My broken heart and upset mind can’t comprehend So dear bitter, broken, me is coming to an end Lured and lusted to internet sociality Upset and degraded because i’m not what instagram tells me to be My life consisted of adversity in reality I’m marked with scars scarred for every reason that i’m not Ive died on the inside allowing my outside to rot It’s me and my sin until death do us apart or so I thought I flip the pages of the book of James And I’m reminded about this love that never changed But allow me to speak this truth for you This grace, This love let it pursue you We out to sought the truth of whether or not this God we speak of has truly existed And trust me I wouldn’t speak of it if I didn’t already know this. And it may sound crazy the way I say this but the relationship I have with my Jesus is more than just religion. Believe me, He gets it. A bitter, broken me, yes He gets this. He showed me His scars, Scarred for every reason I thought I was Once died on that cross For the bitter broken me that I once was Simplicity at its finest Complexity has no life in this A love I thought I forgot Was once reintroduced by the begotten son of God

Initially a spoken word piece I've written recently, but I just wanted to share it with everybody.
