  • Somehow our bodies continue living 
    When we die inside 
    Pain and trouble grab 
    A little part of my heart
    And freeze it in the moment
    But the rest of me goes on
     
    This piece of me
    Struggles and screams
    It cries out for mercy
    And for restoration
    For the answers
    To its questions
     
    And yet the rest of me
    Takes a breath
    And pushes on without it
     
    Life says to just
    Make it through another day
    Lifeless and empty
    To keep walking without
    A heart
     
    How did I get here?
    My eyes open to living 
    Life broken 
     
    He comes and takes me back
    To the day
    To the moment
    The crisis of pain
    Gently holds
    My weeping heart
    And puts it in again
     
    This piece of me
    Struggles and screams
    It cries out for mercy
    And for restoration
    For the answers
    To its questions
     
    He says He wants all of me
    And He’ll help me find each part
    It is an invitation 
    To live
    To hurt
    To cry
    An invitation
    To become whole
