Feelings Hidden

Published by Family Friend Poems February 2011

I'm crushed, I'm broken,
I'm confused by the word you've spoken
I run to the shelter of a friend
who truly is a helping hand.

I'm torn, I'm scared,
I fear of what could happen
I grab onto the outstretched arms
Comforting me more than words can tell.

I'm empty, I'm lonely,
I only want a place of belonging
I reach and touch the hymn so vibrant
Healing my broken heart.

I'm hurt, I'm bleeding,
These feelings I hold so dear inside
I reach out yet again to this loving hand
Guiding me to the place of Redemption
No longer were my feelings hidden.
