Bent

I cannot bloom
the way I used to.

My colors are drab,
Far less than my potential.

I am bent.
Longing to praise you,
The way you designed me to.

With despotic understanding,
You love me as if I were whole.

I raise my petals,
Awkwardly worshiping by choice,
A silhouette of what I will become.

That is true worship. It made me cry...Then it made be really think
about my own unept attempt at worship. Thank you for such a provocative blog site. I visit
it often.
