When I Can’t Escape

Posted on by Dr. Linda Agnes Knowles

“Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” -Matthew 11:28-30 Berean Study Bible

WHEN I CAN’T ESCAPE

Written by Linda A. Knowles

When I can’t escape the meanderings of my own mind

filled with senseless clutter like a traffic jam,

I find myself screaming so loud,

but from my mouth,

there’s no sound,

and then realize I’m screaming on the inside,

and no one can hear.

*

Then I realize how angry I am,

trying to rid myself of the unknowing.

Then I wonder when all trust is broken,

what is the point of anything.
