My Heart Is Troubled

my heart is troubled
the heaviness of

pain
harm
trauma
ignorance

rests on my soul

words don't come easily
just feelings

angst
broken hearted
compassion

it sounds

trite
insincere

but i want to embrace

the world
all the hurting people
on both sides

i read the bible
i search scripture
i seek guidance

there i find

grace
mercy
peace
humility
kindness
love

in humanity
in churches
in society
in government
in families

there i find

misinformation
fear
heartache
brokenness
hate
emptiness
harm

i choose God's word
God's guidance

LOVE

and yet

my heart is troubled
