Contrite

I am so lost.
I am so afraid.
I hate doing this.
I can't even look at you
as tears erupt from this
brackish fountain in 
my heart that feeds these
things I can't control.
why why why?
In the beginning it was not so.
I am so lost.
I keep running away
and finding even worse things on the road.
Where did you go?

Hey. Hey.

You grab my hands tight
big strong fatherly 
hands close over
my trembling little
girl fingers
and I cling
I just cling.
and let it all flow.

You are not lost.

Finality.
Authority.
Divinity.

You are not lost.
You are right here with Me.
You are not lost.
You are right here with Me.

Jen Lowery: you are forgiven.
