[10:43 AM, 1/17/2019] Mummy 👩🏻: Strength of my heart
Psalm 73:26

My flesh and my heart may fail  but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever more.
[10:54 AM, 1/17/2019] Mummy 👩🏻: This bible verse brings me much comfort when I was in uni and scared of the exam papers that I had to sit for. I cannot afford to fail any papers as that would means I will have to stay another year to re-do that subject to graduate. My family doesn't have the money for that but God is good  and I managed to finish my degree in 3  years.
I pray that you too will find the strength for your heart in the Lord.

I thought you knew me

I thought you'd love me

the day you saw me in velvet red lipstick,
pearled neckline

i was hoping the seams would close up

choking me,
frilly skirt in your favourite colour,

and eyes that resembled your mother's.
maybe i thought

you might see through the disaster

behind this smile,
the chaos hidden in the purse of my lips,

and figured i was worth saving.
