Bland

After the earthquake, I smile.
I might fall a little or maybe a lot but I get up. 
I get up because I realize that there is nothing down there for me to do.
Down was not home; it was uncomfortable.
Poco a poco with a spoon for a shovel and faith so big, Mount Everest trembles, I crawl out.
Residue lingers but making the best of the moment is what counts.
That's all that matters.
When dry runs and inconvenient pit falls run amok. 
The moment counts. 
All the moments count.

Insomnia

I'm here pleading with you. Praying for you to just happen. I understand there might be some unwanted conversation that is blocking your flow but please drown them out.  I'm still reaching out to you. Eyes droopy and ready to fall. Ready to drift into dreams unknown. Take me away to the land where I fly over oceans and run with wild animals. I beg you.  Show up. Show up.

Walk signal

The blackened sky promises more than just rain.  The promise of complete destruction knocks on a frail, weathered door.  Open door Close door Open door Half way  Door falling of the hinges, fresh paint covering the mildew.  Strange hands gripping the handle, almost loosening the last rusting screw.  The blackened sky promises more than just rain.  Syncing with the troubled wind, secretly hoping for the rain. Still The unknown, blackened sky promises more than just rain.  Trust the wind, trust the promise of rain.  Trust.  Blue skies painted black with false hope and broken hearts.  Misguided, falling for the promise of rain.  Was it wrong to hope, for a little bit of rain?

valley days

I hope you never confuse my pain response for weakness. I was built stronger than I believe, but I'm slowly believing.  You see, my maker believes in me.  He or she thinks I'm such a badass.  I was fashioned to face hard times with grace. My foundation of faith, sturdy, unwavering and sure.  So much confidence in my conquering abilities. I was made strong. I was made to fight battles and win. Yes, I will win.  So, when hot tears fall like rain, that's just a break in the main. He will fix it. He knows his handiwork. He knows. My God knows.
