What she said
I came across these two poems by Nyx Martinez posted on her blog sometime ago. I remember really needing them when I found them. I found them again today. … Just beautiful….
Because…I Need
I hold the hand of Faith because I am blind. I need her eyes to see for me.
I hold the hand of Courage because I am afraid. I need her strength to comfort me.
I hold the hand of Love because I am unlovely. I need her to see past that.
I hold the hand of Confidence because I have none. I need her trust in me.
I hold the hand of Prayer because my words are inadequate. I need her eloquence to empower me.
I hold the hand of Wisdom because I am foolish. I need her insight to preserve my mind.
I hold the hand of God, because with His own, He holds all there is of me.
Without measure Without impartiality Without hypocrisy Without conditions Without favoritism Without ignorance Without selection Without boundaries Without limitations Without reservations Without apprehension Without insecurity Without doubt Without time
Without impossibilities
…Within Perfection—Your Love.
