Embers of Worth

Blanketed away rests the affirmations of each day.
Substituted only for criticism, mockery, and dismay.

I hearken back to childhood but still there is not worth.
I listen further still, all the way to my birth.

Heavy heart seemed to follow me every step of the way.
Things I've seen, things I've heard, the things I did not say.

This is the day I am given. Only one at a time.
This day I will see my worth. Something of sublime.

Not haughty, selfish, or conceited just looking for myself.
Too long have I squandered this precious knowledge of wealth.

Sitting on the hidden embers of the fire deep inside me.
This day I will know that Jesus has always loved me.
