# 83

The noise is loud, and I am shaken.
Why do You not quieten it?
I am inconceiveably small, and You know
this. How much am I expected to grow in
so little time?

He does not ask of us what is impossible.

The plaintive voice of one so small is endearing.

profound, much is said without saying much at all, always impressed by those who can do that , take care

New lovers are nervous and tender, but smash everything. For the heart is an organ of fire

I like this a lot. Reminds me very much of the Bible passage where a couple disciples are in the boat and a storm starts. Jesus is asleep and they wake him up panicked and he calms the storm then says "Where was your faith?"

Gonna keep this. It's a prayer of sorts, which I've said many times before... but you give it better words then me

Always, Alyssa

He was a man of sorrows
...I am a girl of tears.

Did you get an answer? It's good that we have to keep stretching ourselves.
