I have a lot to think about

I look at this past year and I ruminate

She loves me, she loves me not

I remember the times that makes me hesitate

As children we played hide and seek

With more than just two

As adults we also play

But now it’s only me and you

We hide behind our masks

We hide behind our texts

We avoid the white elephant before us

Are we not vexed?

The trouble with hiding behind a smile

Is revealed when we look into a mirror

Our reflection shows the disconnect

The contrast becomes more clearer

As kids we danced on the playground

We now dance around our emotional state

How long must we avoid these wounds?

How long must we wait?

I pray for an act of God‘s mercy

For you and I to heal

For you to behold

For you to feel

I am confident there is good medicine between us

We must both remove the mask

Show the soft underbelly

Forgive and let go of the past
