My worth

I’m sorry God but I tried, I give of my heart to others who only wipe their feet on my worth, no audience I seek, only you God but it’s not enough…

Dreary body I bring your church, as I kneel my worthless body at your  feet, will you still seek my my heart although I come empty handed?

No awards, no boasting just plain old me, mom, wife, little of no knowledge of your faith..


I’m sorry GOD
no friends 
No life
No family for they’ve left.


I wake up each morning, I say thank you for my blessings no matter how insignificant are they.
For comparison their of joy, I’m not seeking to be YOU, for I’d never be enough, you see my anger, my close mindedness, maybe I better settle for the darkened streets with other rejects, who unlike “others” non stop praises on social media..

I’m sorry God I’m not enough, maybe I was a mistake, for a blind eye everyone turns from me, now I know what “the unseen hearts feel like”. 


Gone
Empty 
Nothing 
Inadequate
Unimportant
Neutral 
Empty hearted
