Inner Shell Cracks 07/22/2021

Didn’t believe
That God existed
Within my heart
And present
All the time.

For my eyes
Were closed
To the beauty
And its messages
Of healing
And love
Being sent to me
Without asking.

How did I miss all this?

Little did I know
Everything I chose
Was in preparation
For the tragic event
Destined
To change my life.

The emotional bombshell
Occurred with intensity
Twas’ sudden
And hit the heart
Forcefully.

Cracks in my inner self
Opened
And softened my pain
Releasing its hold
Won’t fight this feeling
Any longer.

Finally acknowledged
The healing and love
Being sent to me
Were heavenly blessings
Destined to transform me
Profoundly.
