Cyndi’s Poem
by Cyndi McCoy & R.E. Slater
I don't know if this means
that God didn't hear our prayers for healing,
I don't know if
our prayers were from pure hearts,
I don't know if this means
contrary to evidence we'll keep believing,
I don't know if
science has discovered what miracles are,
I don't know why
our hearts determine to keep seeking,
I don't know if
God or man dealt us these cards,
I don't know if
the answers will be revealing,
I don’t know if
we will only ever understand it in its parts,
but I do know
I'm unsatisfied with this feeling,
perhaps darkness is revealing
the truth we thought we knew all along,
that hidden deep down is seething
a brokenness I cannot explain nor could,
a brokenness deeply felt and yearning
passed to all with a beating heart churning,
hearts broken every one
awaiting light but receiving none,
awaiting healing while still believing
awaiting miracles to bind the bleeding,
binding me to the God I love
binding me to ikonic fellowship,
sharing brokenness with the healing
breathing I in God and God in us.
