Compensate for Being Four Poems Behind

Honesty can be such an amazing thing
especially when you hear the answer from
different people who are all looking at
the exact same goals.
That's unity.

I told some truth of how i've been feeling
this friend, i don't even talk to much to begin with
he just sorta brought it up, and i guess he knew
some sense of the story, but it was there, so i decided
to simply follow through with it.

I told him what was happening lately in my life
the good, the bad, the ugly, and the hopeful
and he told me some things too
things i guess was good for me to know
because it assures me so much that i'm
sure that my heart is at the right place
but i myself am in the middle of the progress
so quite literally
i'm following my heart
following after, rather.

But it all works out, or it seems like it will
because true testimonies come from persistence
and courage and pain and even sometimes
getting some courage, some balls, if i must say so
myself.

So off i go again, trying to rebuild everything
from the beginning, or as if it was from
the beginning, even though it sort of isn't
but who knows?

God works in funny was, very, very funny ways
and i think that my friend is right.
Perseverance and courage go hand in hand
can be good bedfellows, what have you.

So here's to true testimonies
better stories than those who try too hard
safer ways to regain everything that sorta
gradually decrescendoed down.

But it's all okay, because i know that
this is how things should be
this is how God works.

God works in funny ways, He really, really does sometimes.
