It is Time to Grow

When external forces bring internal turmoil

Desperation and confusion rule the day

Desires of the heart beat in tandem, stoking the fire

but just what is this puzzle?

Do we give in or fight?

What is better?

What is best?

Where does the answer lie?

Such complexities we cannot absorb

It is beyond our capacity

Yet, slowly, fitfully

the scales are removed

Hearts grow

Souls expand

That piece that once didn't fit

now renders completion

Understanding, peace, and fullness reign
