This is where we write from the heart as words pour out as water, spilling on to the page with no worry about over-thinking or perfection.
Today's prompt is:'Broken'
START...
Broken Image
Seeing a mirror image
flawed, imperfect
drowning in brokenness
where we see cracks
you see courage
where we see flaws
you see a flood of forgiveness
where we see holes
you see opportunities to fill
our woundedness
mirroring your own
as you took human flesh
our brokenness
like your body
pierced and torn
wearing our darkness
corruption within
and now we lift eyes
still hesitant to view
ourselves afresh in you
for you see
beauty in ashes
hope in despair
joy in grief
perseverance
through pain
and you bring
restoration
of all we have lost
broken lives
minds and bodies
can be healed
and made new
let love embrace
let grace repair
all broken places
we despair of
ever being mended
seeing in the glass
darkly here
until you lift the veil
reveal the glory
your light within
make us whole again
let us know that
renewal, hope
and healing is here
if we only look
away from ourselves
and up to you
the Mirror
of our wholeness
