A Chink In My Armor

A Chink In My Armor 
(The idiom "chink in one's armor" refers to an area of vulnerability)
***
It had never occurred to me that I might have a chink in my armor 
the light casted in, like rain tapping always on the very same spot 
My memories were clenched and like a fisted child, I held all valor 
inside, lost without word I could not undo that solid hurtful, knot; 

Then came the day when I decided to stop and take a deep breather 
time stood still and I could feel the handles of time turning me right 
Movement of heart and soul arose and finally saw neglect's incur  
it was I clinging to the child inside surfacing from the longest night

Daylight greeting me with new awareness and I was finally free 
every raw truth inside had finally turned to soft and pliable hyde 
Breath of angels greeted me, as I gently cleared all my debris 
I found myself in the arms of love, with compassion at my side.
