I was no one
I became someone
I chased after everyone
Did I gain the universe only to lose God?
I never wanted to look back or look in a mirror
The purity of a child
The bravest of hearts
The wounded souls
The rejects or outcasts
Jesus loves all, but humanity is still broken
There's only one Creator
There's only one Father
There's only one Spirit
There's only one cross
There's no room for judgment, but all I see is what's broken
My trauma and my scars tell me this:
Make no mistake
Make no errors in judgment
Make no excuses for what's wrong and do what's right
Make only good choices, for it'll strengthen your character
Face your imperfections, then hear Him say that you're enough
I can't take away your pain
I can't make you feel happy again
I can't be who you want me to be
I can't lay my life down again and expect different results
Just let me be, and I'll learn to live with your disappointment
Sisters choose to love, no matter what happens in life
Friends choose us for companionship, but they serve different purposes
Our parents choose to give us the world so that we can choose better
I chose to believe in Jesus because I'm willing to admit that I need a savior
I chose to walk with my demons because I'm used to dealing with them alone
We chose each other until the end, but you keep saying that my choices in love are unfair
I'm not sorry for being me, flaws, faults and all
I'm not going to regret loving, even if it caused me to suffer in silence
I'm not going to judge you ever, even if you still think you're not enough
I'm not going to make you love me, but I know that Jesus can heal us in time
Your heart is too pure, but mine still feels shattered. How is it fair for me to receive less?
I don't want your sympathy. I just want to feel understood, and to let that be enough.
