He Heals The Broken Hearted and They Cry No More

I was in church
Singing about how God heals the broken hearted
And they cry no more.
But you,
Have been through unimaginable pain.
And I would hold your hand
Until I crunched your bones in my fist
While I faced down God for you
Because that shouldn't have happened.
You shouldn't have had to face down your worst fear.
Live through it.
Day after day.
How dare God think
My views are favorable
Much less flattering.
