February 23
A Poem by Sara Ahmed
Inhale
The sunshine
The morning breeze
My perfect cup of coffee
Your voice calling me
Exhale
My nightmares and demons
My failure and weakness
Our fight and my losses
My uncontrolled temper
Inhale
My positive thoughts
My weakness for chocolate
My ability to stand once more
Exhale
Cloudy days
Damaged hearts
Silent struggles
Inhale
My devoted heart to the moon
My favorite book
Exhale
The last few years
And the last few calories
Inhale
Me
Exhale
You
“Oh Great God, Give Us Rest”
by David Crowder Band
Oh great God give us rest
We're all worn thin from all of this
At the end of our hope with nothing left
Oh great God give us rest
Oh great God do your best
Have you seen this place it's all a mess
And I've done my part to well I guess
Oh great God do your best
Could you take a song and make it thine
From a crooked heart twisted up like mine
Would you open up Heaven's glory light
Shine on in and give these dead bones life
Oh shine on in and give these dead bones life
