The Onion

On the surface, Strong. Confidently moving forward. A life of purpose and direction. A little deeper, Peaceful. Smiles freely given. Laughter and encouragement flow. Deeper again, Juggling. Struggling to add one more ball. Stress and exhaustion bleeding through. Digging deeper, Frustrated. Struggling to let go of hurt. Anger and pain suppressed. Even deeper, Tension. Confusion bounces around. Right and wrong argue. Deeper once more, Fire. The torment of emotions burn. Fear and furry pushing through. Deeper still, Shame. Good is never good enough. Guilt and darkness all consuming. Dare to go deeper, Loathing. Failure obvious. Self hatred and disappointment take grip. Deepest, Dark. Strength, Peace, Juggling, Frustration, Tension, Confusion, Fire, Shame, Loathing, and Darkness. All blotting out the Son Of Hope. Tears of hopeless dreams tear at the soul. Looking up from the void. A small glint of Light . Hope reborn. Psalm 62:8 Trust in
