hardness

and we look and see how hard we've all become
and we look and see how easily it comes
and we look and see how much it's come undone....

break my hardness
shatter it and see its pieces fall to the ground
break my hardness
protect the softness beneath that is found
break my hardness
preserve my mind and keep me sound
take my hardness
and break it down

hidden

layers
tragedies
minor earth-shattering things
aloneness

absence
truth
quality of life
quality of anything at all

broken
crushed inside
losing pieces, but gaining new ones
uncertain

year of favour
promises to cling to
dreams to grip
tired

not lies
but not openness
and not easy
fear

faith
feeble framed
freaking out
struggling

questions
hopes of being wrong
moving on
living life one way or another
