(God’s Sonnet by Timothy J. Verret; “it’s how I cope to hope in feeling what I feel so I can heal, and you feeling what you feel so you can heal”)

You push what you’re feeling down for the count.

“I don’t like this feeling,” you say. “Away!”

What you will feel, you can heal. The amount

you allow your feel is your freedom’s weigh.

I feel so much that I’m marked as a “mess.”

I’m a landscape of feeling what you won’t.

I ‘oft take on what you won’t feel, confess

what you won’t confess. I can’t heal your haunt!!!!

“Carry each other’s burdens but don’t feel

what they can’t or won’t,” says Jesus. “You heal

what you feel, not what marks them stainless steel.

Forgive them! They’re not on an even keel.

It can “feel” we don’t know where’s our next meal.

“Feel” this: “Feel what you feel so you can heal.”
