Humanity

Fragile
We are
Trying so hard to be strong
Our humanity
Is the
Weakness
We try to hide
Our flaws
Behind facades
Of hard
Hearts
Broken so easily
By the wrong
Words
Spoken into the
Air
Around us filled
With the fragrance
Of countless tiny
Flowers
Clinging with such tenacity
To the branches
Where they were
Formed
From the dust
Spoken into existence
By His voice
Yet with the slightest touch
They fade from purest white
To a wilted brown
No longer filled with
Life
Bruises our souls
Like the brush of skin
Shrivels the freshest
Blossoms
Spring again with passing time
Growing fresh each
Day
Is another chance
To let our fragile humanity
Be stripped away
So that we can be made
New
Minds fixed on our
Creator
Of the smallest flower
He will take away
The crushing pain of a heart
Broken
Vessels will be filled with His
Life
Made full of joy
In the beauty of our
God
Loves us.
