Even though
I'm a mother...
I'm a wife...
I'm a churchgoer...
I'm a student...
I'm a friend...
I'm a daughter...
I'm a ministry leader...
Even though I'm surrounded by lots of people...
I feel like my loneliness is about to devour me.
All my connections are now gone.
My loneliness is stifling my thoughts.
Even though
I'm a child of God
and
am filled with the Holy Spirit...
I am lonely.
Even though
I talk to God everyday
and
thank Him everyday...
I am lonely.
I can be surrounded by a room full of people...
and yet I am lonely.
It's like a heavy weight on my shoulders
that's about to crush me.
This great big blank of loneliness.
It devours and stifles and smothers and strangles.
