Do You Trust Me?

Posted on by KDP

I can’t protect you but I can hold out my hand,
You may not always agree with me but I hope you at least understand.

Your strength is what many hope for,
You are no longer the guy I once knew before.

Past, pain, and patience are your daily battles,
It always seems as though you are going through never-ending trials.

Your mind toys with you even at your best,
While you try to make sense of these unnatural tests.

But whenever you begin to doubt or feel defeat, look to your left.
I don’t have many friends but for those few, I will give my all until there is nothing left.

Not for credit and not for me,
But because I know what it feels like to be mentally empty.

You must not give up on me now,
You are one of the reasons I am able to wear this smile.

It is time to take a chance again with Thee,
So I ask you….Do you trust me?

Woman

Posted on by KDP

Who is this woman I see?
Who is this woman that she has become?

I do not recognize this glow in her eyes,
Or this confidence that was once nowhere in site

Who is this woman I see?
Who is this woman staring at me?

Before there was this little girl trapped in the darkness of her past,
Trying to convince herself that the pain would somehow pass.

If she stayed distracted, she wouldn’t have to admit she was hurting.
Ironically, it only prolonged her suffering.

But that little girl no longer hides within the shadows.
She walks with elegance and hope; she is unrecognizable.

Who is this woman I see?
Why is this woman fighting for me?

Filled with love and compassion,
Being bound by her past sins is not an option.

While Satan desperately tried to destroy her every which way,
I was certain she would soon break,
But she continuously grabs hold to the One who has given her a reason to stay.

Who is this woman I see?
Why does this woman refuse to give up on me?

The swift movement of a blade she used to see as a way to numb the pain,
But her Savior has given her the strength to persevere through the heavy rain.

A woman thou art loosed from the chains of guilt, hopelessness, and fear.
Overcoming the secret desires that once drew her near,

To the depths of self-destruction and sorrow,
But now those doubts are no longer yesterday’s tomorrow.

She won’t be defeated, even by herself,
She longs to meet the King and will keep fighting until her last breath.

Who is this woman I see?
And why does this woman no longer look like me?
