Buried.

I've been buried here.
Beneath this rubble.
For days. Weeks.
Every breath a struggle.
Every day a battle.
And now I'm here.
Buried.
Beneath this rubble.

The battle was epic.
Relentless. Tiresome.
I got scared.
Gave up.
And hid.

I thought You had left me.
I cried out to You.
You heard. I didn't.
My cries were too loud.
Too proud to hear You.
I wanted Your help.
But I dreaded facing You.

You are calling.
I hear You.
Speaking.
Singing.
I cry to You.
And wait.

I lay here.
Buried.
But the weight is being lifted.
I see glimpses of blue sky.
I'm almost free.
My self-made captivity.
Being shattered.
You're coming for me.
