Desperate Prayer

November 11, 2013 By Juanita Ryan Leave a Comment

A single
silent
scream
launches
with
sudden
violence
from
my inner
depths
and
rockets
toward
the distant
steel
blue
sky.
And for
just
an instant
I can
see
white
jet stream
forming
a vapor
link
between
my stricken
heart
and
you.

——

I will not keep silent;
I will speak out in the anguish of my spirit.
Job 7:11

from Heaven at My Door by Juanita Ryan
