Tiny Shiny Diamonds, His Promises

I’ll live upon His promises, those tiny shiny diamonds,

because I’ve seen the hard depths of the drinking-drowning-darkness

I’d assured myself the addictiveness, that I’d ingested - wasn’t contagious

whenever really it was robbing everything: bones and blood...

hopefulness had to have its way within my tired old soul
