Will I Ever Love Again

Danyettia Crawford 1985 (United States)



Will I ever love again without fear
Will I always be consumed by the hurt and betrayal of the past years

Will I ever open up and allow someone to truly love me
Or is the pain so deep that I’m afraid to heal and love wholeheartedly

How to overcome what you dare not speak as your truth
Are you so afraid of overpowering the emotional and mental abuse

Will I ever take control back and love how God says I’m suppose to love
Or will I continue to deny myself happiness because I feel it’s not what I deserve

Help!
I find myself in lonely cries
But I hide my tears with gentle smiles

Lord I surrender it all because I can’t live like this
But then I take it back not brave enough to trust that you Got this

The battle to love and trust is more than my physical being can understand
But yet I failed to put my trust in God but was willing to trust a man

Shameful of how my back turned on God but spiritually I understand how a man was able to break my heart

God is what set me apart
So I will love again because it is God who now holds my heart!

About this poem

Going through a divorce I felt unworthy of happiness and love. Forgot who I was in Christ and how he loves me.

IN MY POEMS I usually do not share my poems because they are sacred to me It is the place of no judgement where my feelings can be released In my poems is the best part of me This has been my outlet of things that has now set me free In poem is some of the greatest challenges I have faced But also, of the experiences that molded me into the woman I am today I have experienced a lot of joy but pain too Held myself responsible even for the things I never knew I grew into poems and them into me My heart is exposed through each word you read I allow vulnerability because the same poems I write are the same ones that saved me Heartbreak and lost I have endured it all Learned how to trust God and always stand tall Mistakes I made taught me the best In poems I surrendered my stress Depression hit like being overtaken by a wave But through my poems unbroken I stayed I am a book many dare not to read Mislead by the thought of knowing me In my poems is my reality often altered with some fantasy I am just me and I give my all So, as you read my poems, I hope I can make you smile more…
