pitter-patter tear drops

Pitter patter

pitter patter

do you hear that?

Drip drop

drip drop

what causes such pester?

Slowly I lift my head as teardrops fall onto my cheeks

tears that have been shed that I have ignored

pain I have suffered but not taken one second to think

what has happened?

Why am I here?

Have I been abandoned or shaken?

Am I wounded?

I know for sure of one thing

it hurts

my eyes burn from the weeping

remembering my past

flashbacks consume

not letting me go

letting me know that I am nothing

I was left alone

flashes of lightening pass by me

grabbing my attention

shouting

screaming at me

who I am

they tell me

I am not forgotten

I am loved

by someone greater

by God

who knows all things

he wipes my tears and says

“You are my child I will love you forever more”
