Out of Pain

My heart

Is a patchwork of scars

Neatly knit together by a Master hand

The pieces fit within your hand

Hope coming alive because I chose your smile

The pain remains

But at your touch

I feel myself

Coming

Alive

Again

Resurrection

It is a reality and has been

Over and over

For this fractured and healing and broken

Heart

This

Will Never be EASY

But it is good

Relinquishing

So you can

Truly

Have your way in my life

The staccato heartbeats

Bear your signature

A phraseology

Only found

In those

Who have been redeemed

I face my dragons

Without fear

Knowing you are near

The worse pervades

And hope departs

But your hand, always upon me

You put my pieces together

Flying apart, they are stilled in your hand

I breathe because you breathe into me

I fall apart as you look into my heart and see past the pain to the me you are creating

Your creation is wonderful

As you look upon it, I am changed

Suddenly

Life FLASHES

Where only death had dwelt before

And I find I can go on

Hopeful

Because of the words I hear you singing over me

That I have a victory

I am never far from you

I have a home in your arms

Again

I find that I am made whole

Complete

In the love of my Saviour

I am home

I am His

And this nightmare will end

With the sound of a white knight on a horse

Heaven my reward

I wait for you

Above all else

And you

Will Never

Disapppoint me

Risen King, Your call

Is the one I wait for

And in the meantime

I am alive in you
