The Gaze

By Lydia Royce

The Gaze

How do I face
Hard and difficult times?
When my heart
Leans towards being offended
By my God.

How do I face
Pain and suffering?
When all I want to do
Is to run away from
My Maker?

In silence
And
In solitude
I find my rest
When I throw my tantrum
At the bosom.
I cry my anger
And my frustration
At his chest.

Then
I raise my head
To look
Into His face.
To see
Myself in
The apple of His eyes.
