This Thorn Of Mine

Poetry 1 Minute

The pain is real
It is deep and wide

This chasm I cannot cross
Nor can I shed

My knees buckle
Beneath the weight

The thorn mine
I will accept

To bear on this journey
Till I reach
Heaven’s Gates

I'm a writer, poetess, photographer, single mother and caregiver. Lover of God, music, writing, art, and crafts of many kinds. I enjoy spending time reading, listening to good music, drinking coffee and chatting with friends. I write and read whatever my mind travels to. It's clean (as in no profanity), funny, loving, and sometimes...well a lot, down-right disturbing.
