Pain tugs at the outside
I am aware of all I have lost
Pain tears at the inside
Adding weight to all that it has cost
Fear pushes from the outside
Saying the walls that were built will cave in
Fear creeps in on the inside
Declaring I will stumble and give in
Yet faith lives on the outside
Proven by people who walked before me
Faith opens the gate from the inside
Letting the light in so I can see
For the sun shines on the outside
Reminding me of all that is true
And heaven shines on the inside
For You make all things new

Beautiful written Esther. The words just flow out of you.
That’s beautiful Esther. Really beautiful.
Hope, as they say, springs eternal. Keep faith and hope, Esther.
Så vackert!
May you be at peace. May you be healed.
Gorgeous!
Beautiful and poignant, Esther. I love the golden light in your photo, which suits the poem so well.
Beautiful!
You express yourself and your inmost feelings so beautifully in poetry, Esther. You have a gift. I pray that God will give you peace and healing.
