Someone only God knows

My past is like water.


I was drenched.  Soaked.  Caught in a torrent.


Naked and shivering 


I clung to my dignity like a hooded raincoat.




My heart clung.




My heart changed.




I walked miles.




Like evolutionary man, like God's creation


a child of Mercy


I bathed myself in forgiveness


I stood upright; I threw off my fear




I stand strong.


I sit in love.


I rest anew.
