You Breathe


BY CAMILLE AUBREY MICA

I am

Lost.

Taken.

Bound.

Broken.

Sold.

Day after day,

Until I am dead.

Touched, but so alone.

Screaming with no voice.

No one hears

No one hears me.

But somehow

A whisper echoes through my soul

Something beats in my chest

Do I still have a heart?

And You breathe, You breathe

Suddenly I can breathe . . .

A hand stretches out, opens

Bleeds . . . You bleed for me

A hand reaches out, touches me

Holds me . . . You hold me

Rescued

Safe

Restored

Made new

Loved.

Day after day, until I am alive.

Born again.

Freed from every chain.

Free.

Alive.

Yours.

"And the one who was seated on the throne said, 'See, I am making all things new.'" --Revelations 21:5
