Level of Brokenness

Author  Dana Redricks 
April 30, 2024

The level of Brokenness runs so deep even if I tried to explain I feel no one could understand. The pain in my heart has left a hole in my soul, and only God Yahweh can make me whole. My past haunts me, and how I long to be free 

My heart is broken and just like humpty Dumpty, I just want to be put back together again. I want to be loved, but I think how someone loves somebody as broken as me. 

I carry around this burden in my external body seeking sweet release in smoke, in a bottle, or in a package, but no relief. I'm screaming inwardly, but no one can hear me, if people could see what I see. They would see a person dying slowly, and I long for the Lord to deliver me.
