it's funny how
the word
life
can make you feel
so many things
joyfulness
hopelessness
excitement
misery
so many stages of
life
once young and oblivious
feeling sad and trapped
being freed and loved.
life
at seven years old
oh what a time that was
feeling the air
rush around me
running free
what a perfect world this is
i thought
life
at twelve years old
i shiver at the thought
trapped
in cold darkness
hopeless
what's the point
i thought
life
at seventeen year old
renewed
loved
by a creator
who has set me free
so what is life?
life is
beautiful
heartbreaking
wonderful
incomprehensible
gut-wrenching
complex
but
our lord
papa
he is never changing
always stable
faithful
and that makes
life
so
very
worth it.
I love this so, so much <3
