Oratio: Heard My Cries

In my brokenness
I sought you Lord
looking everywhere
I could imagine you to be
crawling and crying
hopeless
tormented
nothing left of me
but tears and anguish
the fires of hell
consuming my soul
in my darkest hour
you heard my cries
lighted my path
drew me in
and made me whole
