I Know Your Name
Amy D. Funk
You press down upon me
A weight of lead bearing down
Your oppression crushes me
My lungs burn
I struggle to breathe
You force bile from my stomach
Acid burns my throat
Nausea overcomes me
You paralyze me
I cannot move
I feel nothing
You are my enemy
You are my friend
I know your name
You are grief.
Blessed are they that mourn
For they shall be comforted.
Matt. 5:4
