I Wish it Was
By: Phylicia Ebanks
I wish I could only cry on the inside.
I wish that physicality was not always literal.
I wish I could live a life disguising all the emotions I feel.
I wish I wore a perfect smile when all my world was literally crumbling.
Who said it was easy?
Who said I was always going to be strong?
Who said I would never break down?
It's the legacy of Adam that I have inherited .
It's the legacy I want to return.
Adam's sin is what I have inherited.
I do not like it.
But somehow I now realize that only 'One' has the power to mend my heart and to convert my legacy into one I will appreciate.
I will wait eagerly on this sole 'One'.
Who said it was easy?
I wish it was…
It is not.
Life is a gift but I wish life was easy.
I wish it was.
I wish it was.
