The Healing Heart

The Healing Heart

By: Mark Baer

I sit in a dark room tears coming down my face,

I am searching for why someone would cause such pain

Why someone would say such hurtful things

My heart is looking to be healed,

My eyes glance down at my knife,

My eyes turn quickly away.

My heart pounds faster in my chest

My heart is looking to be healed.

My world is spinning out of control,

I do not know where to turn.

The house is empty, it is just me.

My heart is looking to be healed.

Suddenly I hear a small voice in head,

I am straining to hear what he is saying.

I have not heard this voice before but,

My heart is looking to be healed.

I listen even closer to the voice,

Wanting something to take the pain away.

I hear the voice say You are loved

My heart is looking to be healed.

I sit in a dark room tears coming down my face,

I am searching for why I was not listening before.

All I wanted to hear was that I was loved

The voice of God had healed my broken heart.
