'... it is the unaccepted self that stands in my way
and will continue to do so as long as it is not accepted. '
Thomas Merton, A Search for Solitude.
Broken-hearted,
uncertain
of my sullied worth,
beaten down, degraded
to my basic earth,
you gaze on me,
and I see a new light.
My face grows brilliant
in your radiant sight.
You find in me
what I cannot see,
and teach me
to love
humanity.
