I feel so scared and alone.
Its eerily quiet in my home.
Unanswered questions echo in my mind so in essence, I guess its actually quite loud.
I do not know how to quiet the noise.
How to silence the voice
that says "no one cares", "No one is there for you"
Because I know that voice isn't true
And yet still I hang my head in the solitude of this quiet living room in which I sit
as the tears drip down my face
I whisper into the space that surrounds me
"God please surround me once more with Your peace, Abba, please."
