Let me be broken where I am
Don’t tell me to hold it all together
That’s your shit, not mine
Yes, I know you felt you had to ‘carry on’
Sometimes though the load is entirely too much to bear
And needs to be dropped
Its not a sign of failure, weakness or being bad
Its the most honest thing you can do
To say, for today I don’t feel I can go on
But if you do soon you will find the strength
That will return to you
Just as the ocean returns to fill up hollow spaces at the shore
My healing here was far from done
It was too early to move on
I see that now
And also that I am not allowed to see it
Not allowed to be broken
But until I can how can the new life enter
All the broken places
Hollowed out by suffering
Which were only ever preparing my soul
For renewal
Very nice and moving post. Sometimes we do need to just feel the brokenness I believe even though it hurts so much.

Yes I truly believe this. We also need to know there is a part of us that can encompass this and be whole.
