Fullness in Emptiness

Fullness in Emptiness


Sometimes when I’m alone I feel empty
I feel alone and miss my family.
I remind myself when I was twenty
experiencing all the calamity.

I longed for many years – liberation.
Praying everyday that I will have freedom
which lead to alienation.
but it lead me closer to His kingdom.

I tried to forgive them – I tried to
though in the end I had to save myself.
I knew I could not let myself go to
the same place of darkness, I knew my health

is important. Being alone I knew
is difficult. I needed to start new.
