It is hard for me to measure

the validity

of my voice when some

of the noise

that I make still comes from hurt.

I ask God to

help me to unearth

the wounds that long to

keep me bound,

I am growing and I call myself out now.

But I am missing

something or

perhaps I’m selective with

my envisioning,

there are things that I still run away from.

I said that I refuse to

be a hypocrite as I continue to heal.

The human in me

is very real

and she’s still got

a lot of work to do.

Navigating through the hard parts.

But guess what? I ain’t done yet…
