The Stillness

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

There is a stillness. But it won't last forever. Is it Peace? Is it Apathy?
It is suspended animation, slow motion.
My stomach growls, but my mouth will not receive food.
I have no desire for it. Food is for joy and celebration.
The stillness is like glass, and glass breaks.
Awaiting the bullets arrival into my heart. It moves slowly, but it will arrive.
There is a stillness. The stillness is like glass. And glass breaks.


The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
