Ain’t No Hurt Like A Church Hurt
This is a pain that is hard to let go of…
Disclaimer: This post is not meant to offend anyone’s religion. I am only sharing my experience – if you are offended…🤷🏽♀️.
Ain't no party like a holy ghost party?
So, are you all partying, as I’m feeling sorry?
Sorry for what you may ask.
Let me begin because this is not an easy task
Standing there with tears in my eyes
Nervously waiting to hear the sighs
From the congregation
As I endure my first church tribulation,
All because of my infatuation
Which many said would cost me my salvation
I will never be elevated
I’m under heavy sedation
To remove the pain that you said I have caused
My life was on pause
Yes, I sinned, just like the others
But they weren’t here at the altar
My heart ripped out in embarrassment
Constantly dealing with harassment…
The building they say you must come
But no one sees or hears what’s being done
Gossip, pain, and frustration
All of this added pain to my situation
Forget your salutations
Of praise the lord
As I became abhorred
With those words
Those words meant nothing to me
Can’t you see?
I’m breaking at the seams
Thinking this must be a dream
The happiest day of my life
Was stained with strife
Brokenness and unforgiveness
My heart is still filled with that sickness
That the church offered me as a sign to humble me
Which was my insanity
Unlovable I am
That’s what they say
But I know can be
Vital even to this very day
Yes your words broke me
I was low for a while
But now you see
That I walk with a smile
Because you couldn’t break me
With the lies of Christianity
I am walking free, and that is where I will stay
Because I learned the hard way
That the present moment you can’t pervert
Because I know Ain’t no hurt like a church hurt. 🙏🏽
For all those who have experienced pain from any religion, I want you to know you are not alone. I see you, and I understand you – hugs to you, friend. You will heal from it, as I’m still in the process of healing. ❤️💐
