More Valley Songs

Last night, the deluge.
This morning, burning eyes.
Tonight, the heaviness of not having any more tears.

I read Psalm 55 this morning and I've read many quotes. Words about hurting and how it makes one stronger. I've collected pictures and walked around in my shoes, the world still fresh but now stretched.

Discomfort does not mean danger. Pain is what forces us to grow. But as for me, I will trust in the Lord.

Tonight I pray for cohesiveness. I pray for forgiveness and a lack of bitterness. I don't want to grow hard and old. The sense of wonder and resilience that comes with youth is precious to me, and to lose it would be heavier to bear than even this.
