My mind was sealed shut
Until you filled it with slats
Big enough for you to
Fall in between.
You took everything away
Because I had been holding
Onto them too tightly.
But I realized You
Gave me so much more
Than you took away.
You spoke with power
Saying, “If I don’t kill
Who you’ve been,
Things will get worse.”
I trusted You remembering
The gain will justify
The pain it took to get there.
I would gain the whole world.
You spoke with power
Saying, “If I don’t kill
Who you’ve been,
Things will get worse.”
