Day 14 – Write a bad poem, make it as lousy as you can, do everything wrong, let yourself be awful.

So she ran after him and cried out, but he didn’t turn around.

She was in agony, until she found harmony.

Now she’s free, helping others believe.

I guess that’s when she reached me.

But I didn’t want to be set free.

She told me it was time to let go that I deserved more.

So I finally reasoned and was set free of what was chaining me up and now I can help others like she helped me, that’s our ministry.

Many times I still get scared but I have friends that are there.

I know I will make it through because I’m guiding others too.

I’m not sure if that’s what I’m supposed to do.

But it seems like the best option at the moment.
