why stars, why darkness?

By: Cassandra Green

To you...
the one that just went through hell and back
the one that looks up at the stars and wonders, why stars, why darkness?
•
who looks down at their hands and feels like it’s all so unfamiliar, unreal even, like they’re empty and there’s a void and it tears you apart from the inside out
•
my heart goes out to you
•
there's a feeling... and it tries to shred your soul, like a pulling and a strain. it makes you tired, exhausted and weary. like a cold voice over your shoulder say… “it will never be the same.”
•
child.
•
it won’t, but Child [of God], this is a good reminder, because something is about to change.
•
the atmosphere just shifted, like a war cry claiming the empty field.
all you see is stillness, but there’s an army marching, arising. Heaven just rumbled your name. you will never be the same.
•
don’t let that cold voice, that feeling linger or discourage you, because you just got wiser to the attack. you’re a warrior in the making.
•
Brave soul.
Courageous heart.
Warrior calling. You’re in training.
•
so start climbing… to further, higher, greater.
•
i know it hurts… climb.
i know it aches… climb.
i know it feels like you’re breaking, take one more step.
•
i know the chill, i’ve sat with the window open before, but this isn’t the time to sit and be still.
it’s the time to let out a warrior’s cry because your face just got painted.
•
this isn’t the time to quit. God just wrote your name in blood and there’s a price that has already been paid, so now He fights for you. Angel armies fight for you. I lift your name up tonight, I fight for you. You’re not alone. You’re surrounded. You’re thought of, considered, cared about and fought for.
