'Inside-Outside' Poem by Linda Winchell

'Inside-Outside'

Rating: 5.0


I knew that on the inside
that my outside and I were out of place!

I could feel something going on inside
but it wasn't showing, to others upon my face!

It seemed for all, to look quite normal
but something on the inside was going wrong!

More than what, I would ever want to admit
and was doing, so much damage, so much harm!

On the outside my smile looked quite, naturally placed
but it was way far from, natural at!

I was tormented, to the depths of my soul!
it was hurting, even more than that!

Not able to place my finger on it
to address, all this pain I was living in.

It was deep inside, and only God and I shared it
I felt all the deception, of my sins within!

So I placed my sins, on the outside
took the smile, of fakness off my face!

Let another in, who understood my pain
received forgiveness, of God's redeeming Grace.

For now my outside, is what is living inside
the Holy Spirit, is this smile upon my face replaced.
