Prayer

sunrise thru the storm door

Tina:

battling winter blues
like a tired lion
i am told there are seeds beneath earth
that are moving
i am told there is hope
i am told i look beautiful in pictures

i do | n't believe them.

god is a fierce competitor
like a fitness trainer
how far can he push?
how far will i bend?

my hands are raw
my feet are raw

i am a living marathon.

I feel shame for my sadness.
I miss the past.
