Poetry Sunday ~ Broken Beauty


Job 40: 10 Deck thyself now with majesty and excellency; and array thyself with glory and beauty.


Broken Beauty
***
 Take me as I am...
broken beauty
a small token
forlorn duty.

Hold me...
as I crumble
I will rise
newly humble.

Hear me weep...
all my sighing
I am me
beauty dying.

Touch me...
worthy crown
all my heart
falling down.

Lift me up...
to the skies
as my world
slowly dies.

Find me...
in the mire
peel me
from the fire.

Guide my soul...
to the realm
where God alone
mans the helm.
