THE BITTER PAIN OF LOSS

 

Do you ever find a place within yourself

where bitterness has overtaken the love for God,

your Lord, who used to have first spot?

 

Have you ever wished you could forgive past hurts?

But when remorse isn’t shown,

it isn’t possible, no matter how you try.

 

You long for healing.

You need healing.

Is it possible – ever?

 

You want others to know of the wrong done.

Irreversible wrongs,

causing months and years of suffering.

 

You want the one who wronged you

to understand the damage caused.

But there’s no interest.
