Collapsing Walls

Collapsing Walls

A Light so radiant so bold so vast so deep

It penetrates the heart of darkness and it annihilates the curses within me

Seeping into the cracks of the walls I built

Tearing down my so called safe keeping

I run to my collapsing walls trying to collect all the pieces

And mend them together because I am too ashamed to face the Light

The second I allow the light to shine on me is the moment

I become exposed and vulnerable

Screaming and crying out for someone to rescue me

Can anyone hear me?

But I am still running back to walls I built

Trying to hide behind the walls so the Light would not notice me

Because I am too ashamed

Wandering into foreign territory seeking a new identity

This territory is the capital of agonizing darkness

Without the Light, I cannot detect where my next step will steer me

But for a second I get a glimpse of the Light

No No No

The Light looks at you in disgust and veers his face from you

You are a prisoner of yourself

You cannot escape    

I stare down at my wrist and I try to remove the chains

Of sexual immorality, of lust, and of rancor

They are intensely secured I can hardly move

Simply making it tough for daily activities to resume

My reflection stares back from the broken mirror

I collect the distorted pieces hoping I can create a new me

My puzzle has been defiled and pieces are missing

Searching violently someone to complete me

I am blinded by an unrecognizable unknown light

Squinting my eyes

 Have I died?

“No, but you were dead in your wrongdoing and sins

And I have made you alive in me

And the Light has come to dominate your life”
