- He doesn’t hide
- even when we do.
- When he calls us
- he won’t shame us
- he doesn’t embarrass.
- He loves to tell us
- how much we are loved
- loves to hear us
- say anything at all to him.
- He wants me to use my mind
- not shut it off
- he’s not afraid of doubt
- or reason
- or science
- or impossibilities
- or anger or pain or fear.
- He doesn’t see me and demand
- heal, believe, be strong
- he just holds all my broken pieces
- until I’m ready to breathe.
- He knows that intimacy
- sometimes feels like pain
- and doesn’t judge me
- for weeping when he says
- I love you, and you are mine.
