Without Debt
I write off this debt with one last check,
Your walls became a personal chamber
To choke on your words and dream of something better
To speak up and hear only silence
To look into your eyes and not see mine
Our home caved and I fell through the cracks of your hands
Caught drowning in an hourglass
I found a rope labeled grace
Desperately—I pulled and landed in someone else’s arms
The nightmares of our reality slowly disappeared
I began to live inside the dream
My days became full, my light became bright,
Only through His hands have I been able to let go of this fight.
