psalm 32:3-5
living falsely comes
at such a high cost
ever since the garden
we have invested
so much time and energy
trying to stay covered up
hiding our shame behind
whatever fig leaves
we find at our disposal
and it is exhausting
for hiding requires a lot
secrets choke and stifle
leaving us drained
and sapped and dry
only when we
come out of hiding
acknowledge the truth
and uncover what
really lies within us
can there be any real
hope
of living authentically
of life and breath
returning to our souls
may God give us
the courage and
the strength and
the grace to do so
