Do you hear me?
There are times
I doubt,
but…
I know You do.
My crazy brain
can make me believe things
that are not true,
but…
You have taught me,
how others act is on them.
How I react, is on me.
You have given me gifts
of love, patience and tolerance.
This is just another polishing
of my jagged edges
and I can
trust.
I know
You will show me
what I need
to do.
Thank You.
