She sits there
unable to move.
Caught in limbo.
Her breath catches
as she remembers.
She remembers the late prayers,
as she pleaded to God.
Her voice goes hoarse,
begging God.
Begging him to bring her someone
who will understand.
She is lost.
Yet she won't let them see.
She will put on a strong armour.
So they won't see the pain.
But he knows.
God knows.

This is so beautiful and vulnerable. He knows...and comforts...
