judgements,
fears,
emotions, rejections
crowding in,
pressing in,
surrounding my
intentions,
to reach out,
to be whole,
and all the time
i bleed...
loosing hope,
loosing strength,
loosing life,
and yet
love draws me on,
draws me
from the shadows,
the tears,
the heartache,
the failings
of my past,
love draws me on,
on to healing
and offers me a strength
that's not my own,
a boldness
to push through,
but still i bleed,
still i reach
out
to touch,
wondering how
you will
receive me,
for still i bleed...
