worth
by. rsy
staring at train tracks, i boarded the train
to scurry through a montage of where my life was headed
beautiful images.. i thought
happiness awaits
on a set course
if i follow this path
the destination is happiness
and why is that so.. unattractive?
it’s not worth all the toil for the gain
to sift through pressure set by others
just to amount to an image akin to others’
even those who strived for greatness and are memorialized by history
arrived at the end of the tracks one day
i decided then, that i would exist for the benefit of those who saw me as special
i now look back on this day, these thoughts and decision
with compassion and deep revelation..
Jesus,
my life was worth nothing to me
- i did not count it as precious -
until You showed me otherwise
