Hurt.

I can't just cover it up. 

You see them. 

I've been hurting.

I am hurting. 

And what You're doing in my heart is more than 

just smiling. Saying that it's okay with my smile and maybe my words, 

but still feeling hurt. 

Returning to that hurt. 

It will take You. 

It will take You to scoop up all these things 

not so pretty things 

on the surface of my heart, now. 

Floating. 

You are about to do a new thing in my heart. 

I know, 

because I don't know what to do. Haha. 

I don't know how to love 

beyond what my heart knows how. 

It will take You. 

Lord, 

so I am admitting before You, 

I am hurt. 

Before I even try 

to take the thorns off of my own heart, 

that have been moving to my eyes, 

I really don't like thorns in my eyes... 

It blurs my vision from seeing You, 

seeing others,

and too much of myself.

I guess You know that I try to ignore the thorns in my heart, 

but that I can't ignore them as well in my eyes.

I admit before You, 

I am hurting... 

won't You come?

because all I know, at this point 

is that 

it will take You.
