Splinters by PumpkinsMomma April 11th, 2010 (just finished writing it!)
She sinks to the floor with tears in her eyes
A splinter of pain pierces her heart
While the demons inside rip her apart
She waits for her inevitable demise
Is there anyone who'll search for her?
Will anyone love the unworthy one?
Is there anyone who'll save her?
Or will she become undone?
Time passes on and the splinter recedes
She's knows it's still there
Yet it less freely bleeds
A glimmer of hope grows in the air.
New strength carries her through a new day
Until under darkness the thief takes it away.
Fresh splinters prick her skin
Working their way ever deeper within
With relentless precision they damage every good place
Until the only survivor is utter disgrace.
Is there anyone who'll reach out to her?
Will anyone love the repulsive one?
Is there anyone who'll comfort her?
Or will she stay undone?
As the nail's driven in a splinter is formed
Tears for her suffering fall to the earth
From death comes rebirth -
a woman transformed
a woman of worth
Her body is frail and her wounds are still present
Yet when her splinters attack she is not shaken
Freed from the effects of unyielding torment
She is never forsaken
Out of His love flows her strength and power
She was saved from her dark hour
Tears and blood for her suffering fall to the earth
From death comes rebirth -
a woman transformed
a woman of worth
Her body is frail and her wounds are still present
Yet when her splinters attack she is not shaken
Freed from the effects of unyielding torment
She is never forsaken
Out of His love flows her strength and power
She was saved from her dark hour
Time passes on and the splinters recede
She's knows they're still there
Yet they less freely bleed
Love echoes grace into the air --
You're no longer undone
You're my beautiful one.
