Grit and grace series work: nobody loves me (loveless part 2)



No one loves me, oh this ache,

They just care how I perform for them, 

Demand my presence for the shows sake,

But they never truly choose me over him or the selves of them.


Why does no one want me? 

What wrong have I committed, but deeply feel, 

The mask is all they want to see,

No one saved me, and theyre choosing him still


Smile in my face,

Yet im the punchline,

The fool of the cruel jokes they make in their secret place, 

I swear they do this all the time, im nobodies dime. 


Should I stay or should i go?

Searching for a home that feels so far away,

Family isnt family just because blood says so,

Heaven knows my name, no matter what they say. 


My soul cries out 

My heart knows the truth,

Actions speak louder than words said in a shout,

Ive been, being abandoned since my youth. 


I see the joy, the pictures, the love shown to my enemy,

While my line stays silent, no ring,

Im left behind feeling empty ,

Oh death how great is your sting! 


Over and again, same game,

Same thoughtlessness

Im left with only shame,

I know im nothing, and everything that is less. 


What is it to be wanted vs chosen over?

What is it to be chosen over discarded?

Should have kept my cover,

Opening my mouth and spilling the secret started all this. 


A rift too wide to mend,

I try to be the bigger person and get burned,

Over the line, shes around the bend,

No one comes to my aid, my affections never returned. 


Sorrow of mind, blind lead the blind,

Sadness of heart, broken dreams,

Heaviness of spirit, I know the kind,

The all consuming type, weariness is beyond bone deep, the bleeding is as it seems. 


Oh this ache, 

Heartbreak and honeyed lies, 

I thought I was dreaming but this whole time, I've been awake,

Silence the shatter and muffle the cries. 

Of the never ending ache.. 


Scripture Reflections:


"No one loves me, oh this ache..."

Jeremiah 31:3

“I have loved you with an everlasting love;

therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you.”



 "They just care how I perform..."

“The Lord does not look at the things people look at.

People look at the outward appearance,

but the Lord looks at the heart.”



 "Why does no one want me?"

Psalm 27:10

“Though my father and mother forsake me,

the Lord will receive me.”


 "Smile in my face, yet I'm the punchline..."

“He was despised and rejected by mankind,

a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.”

Hebrews 4:15

“For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses...”



"Searching for a home that feels far away..."

John 14:2-3

“In my Father’s house are many rooms... I am going there to prepare a place for you.”



"My soul cries out…”

Psalm 34:17-18

“The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;

he delivers them from all their troubles.

The Lord is close to the brokenhearted

and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”


"Im left behind feeling empty..."

Psalm 147:3

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”


"What is it to be wanted vs chosen?"

Ephesians 1:4-5

“He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world...

In love He predestined us for adoption...”


 "I try to be the bigger person and get burned..."

Romans 12:19

“Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath…”



"Sorrow of mind... weariness beyond bone-deep..."

Matthew 11:28-30

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest... for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”



"I thought I was dreaming, but I’ve been awake..."

Psalm 126:5-6

“Those who sow in tears

will reap with songs of joy.

Those who go out weeping,

carrying seed to sow,

will return with songs of joy,

carrying sheaves with them.”



Encouragement: God is always present in the ache, the midnight tears, he neither slumber nor sleeps but always working out a way for you. Cry out to Him. He hears you.

I keep reaching for you when I know I shouldn't: a poem

 


  • I keep reaching for you when I know I shouldn't

  • I try to release you but each time I try, I couldn't

  • So I'm asking you now, for YOU to release ME
    Please just leave me be, it's for the best can't you see?

    Love hurts, the ache, is it almost over?
    Of being chosen over, and over,
    You're no good for me and I'm too good for you,
    Watch me as I walk away, I never asked you to choose.

    I knew who you'd go for and it wasn't me ever,
    I guess we don't always get our happily ever after
    Fairytales and dreams for childrens past,
    For hearts that won't shatter like glass.

    I'm am now grown,
    And finally strong enough to come into my own.
    And it starts with this,
    A strong goodebye and I won't seal it with a kiss.

    About poem: allegorical piece about letting go of anything that harms us, even when it's hard to do so. Be it a relationship, family harmful dynamics and systems, or a habit or bad coping skill and so many other things.

    I pray this blesses the reader, you're strong than you think, if you're still here after all you've been though, IM proud of you. Amen. God bless you guys.

    1 Corinthians 13:11
    King James Version
    11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

    Philippians 3:13-14
    King James Version
    13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

    14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

All the flowers are dead



All the Flowers are dead by Telle Wild Rose (shauntell rohner)
A small bud tries to blossom into something new
But a man stomps down and crushes the dream
Lower than the dirt underneath his boot, She is you
She lets out a fearful scream
Why does it have to be this way?
The season is warming up welcoming dying hope before it even starts,
When will she finally be ok?
When she passed she left a trail of broken hearts
Water, earth, and light, are needed to flourish
Deprived of all, now theres rot underneath the root,
The sun has fallen, the stars weep, and she wishes there was more than this
Looking around the bed of soil, she realizes sadly something is afoot,
A facade to fool the masses, surely
looking with a careful eye, theres beauty on the outside, yellows, blues and red
But the temperate of the air is somber and winter has come far too early,
Because as she looks deeper she discovers, all the flowers are dead.
Reflection: what areas of your life are dead or rotten? what in your life needs to be revived?
scripture meditation: Ezekiel 37:1-14
King James Version
37 The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
2 And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
3 And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.
4 Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
5 Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
6 And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.
7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
8 And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
9 Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
11 Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
12 Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
13 And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
14 And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord.
Encouragement: the Lord will give you beauty for ashes, for He is the God of the living, not the dead. He came to give you life more abundantly whereas the thief came only to steal, kill and destroy. but we are more than conquerers in Him. - Telle Wild Rose

a long, dark Haiku and Jesus who met me there


Theme song: Falling inside the black by skillet 

A Really Rather Long Dark Haiku by telle wild rose from "i wrote the wound, it was the balm" 

Don't say you love me
 If you're here to appeal your case
 Do not, I've been gone

Death, dark and devils
 Same demons newer levels
 Despair consumes me

A blade, a cut, red
 Spread too thin deep down within
 Scared of my shadow

Lies from loving lips
 Knife in back from my own friend
 A sister falls down

In the valley
 That's where you'll find me hiding
 Waiting for daylight

Sun shines yet I hide
 My shame consumes me always
 The lonely is known

Familiar spirits
 Whispers in the ear, danger
 Scream to shout to tears

Sin is a monster
 Beast underneath the bedding
 Making play of life

Child naivety
 Symbols, and riddles spoken
 Never perceive it

Confusion surrounds
 Yet Everything is nothing
 Here's a song for you

We've reached an end now
 Draw your weapon enemy
 Look in the mirror

📖 Scripture Reflections:
Psalm 34:18 (NIV)
 “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
John 11:43–44 (NIV)
 “Jesus called in a loud voice, ‘Lazarus, come out!’ … ‘Take off the grave clothes and let him go.’”
2 Corinthians 4:6 (ESV)
 “For God… has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”

Encouragement: if you feel your toonfar gone, too crazy, too dark. Stop. God isnt afraid of your darkness. He can and will reach into the depths of you and pull you out. Trust in Him.
