Sometimes, I cant see.

Sometimes, I'm the human with the plank in my eye and you, you have the speck.

I think there is this gap between our minds and reality, where we, think but do not voice what is true.

My mind has formerly been wrapped in what was past and officially dilapidated...

But how will I,

Ever get to move from here to there,

Receiving prescriptions for my false vision so often, I never see the problem solved.

Will I ever get to be fully involved?

I think these rumors and brotherly slanders must quit their meander because there's

No roof or bar that I can jump off to reach your heart- strings.

You've strung me up just to leave me (to) dry.

I've been washed and loaded too many times that I've imploded and uploaded everything I can think to fix this lack.

No matter what I do to please, I only see your back.

You see many times, it's so common that we know the flaws of our fellow brethren but we don't do a thing. If I have a plank in my eye, I still need someone to come beside and equip me, challenge me, help me.

You see the church, was never meant to operate alone. So many of us are hoping that someone will come along side us, call us higher, and ease our burden.

It's all absurd to feel doubtful that this oneness exists, yet these things we do, every moment that we forget to call our King our lover and that is by the way we forget about our brother.

Sometimes I can't see.

My vision is blurry and I need your eyes.

Sometimes I'm the human with the plank in my eye and with your speck, you still see more clearly than I. So please, do not leave me as the Pharisee did when I was beaten and robbed. I need the Samaritan who will pick me up and place me under the care of whose I belong. (Matthew 7:5; Luke 10:25-37)

Don't forget about your brothers and sisters today. They need you as much as you need them.

If you don't see your need for them, or their need for you, reread this poem and find yourself where you have been deserted with no help or guide.

We are the bride, steadily readying ourselves for our groom.
