Tonight I’m tired so I decided to do a little free-verse writing.
Sometimes when I…
-write, words do not express the depth of my feelings
-look at my children, I pray they’ll know how deeply they are loved
-see my husband, I’m reminded of why I fell in love with him
-sleep, I have such wacky dreams I wonder if I’ve gone crazy
- find a letter from an old friend, I realize how much I miss her
-lay awake at night, I ask God who he wants me to pray for
-am sad, I can’t cry no matter how hard I try
-am sad, I cry so hard I wonder if I’ll ever be able to stop
-laugh, I let out an embarrassingly loud cackle
-walk, I look like an ostrich
-look in the mirror, I see new wrinkles
-try to straighten my hair, I wonder why I bother
-like myself, I walk with a skip in my step
-hate myself, I hang my head
-gain new insight, I want to shout it to the world
-read, I have to make myself stop so I can get some sleep
-I get crabby, I make myself take a nap
-fight with someone, I realize I’m wrong but still don’t quit arguing
-feel passionate, I wonder if my heart might explode
-obsess about people or things, I have to ask God to release me from the bondage
-make bad choices, I am so grateful that God loves me know matter what
-trust Jesus, my life goes so much better than I ever expected
-am tired, I need to stop writing on my blog so I can go to bed.
