Unfamiliar Hearts
Unfamiliar hearts snarling ,tangling,
reeking of lust.
Unknown languages speaking,
Gaping wounds bleeding mistrusts.
Unfamiliar hearts scarred and competing
Shouts of mercy and grace,
Keep the muscles beating.
Words rifling out,
penetrating deep beyond flesh.
Bullets lodging into broken souls of doubt
Unfamiliar hearts uniting together with common pains
Familiar traumas relieving lives so strained.
Unfamiliar hearts discovering Gods familiar forgiveness
Repenting hearts rejoicing ,embracing,
Jesus blood they witness.
