“And then I yet again find myself standing before the very thing that has relentlessly pummeled me, staring through a bloodied brow realizing that my most heroic efforts have utterly failed to bring this thing to an ‘end.’ And at those most hopeless of moments where I stand before a monster I cannot slay, it would behoove me to finally accept the reality that the ‘beginning of the end’ is only possible when I ‘begin’ to surrender that thing to God and ‘end’ my feeble attempts to slay it on my own.”

“WHEN HE WON'T LOVE ME I sit quietly here, still, frozen, a lifeless breathing corpse. Inside, abandoned cries for love, ricochet deep in bones. No words pass between my lips, nothing is uttered in protest or defense. Inside, war is proclaimed between the ignorance of flesh and the knowledge of soul. Eyes are fixed in place, to avoid meeting his in this vulnerable state. Inside, is self torture, he is all I can see, no matter the position of eyelids.”
