Just Because
by Sally Hanan Mommy? Why? You've left me again -- starving, rotting in a closet with no toilet. Mommy, why? Why don't you love me? Mommy, why? Where are your arms around me? Why don't I hear you saying, "I'm so sorry. I should cherish you. I should not have I wish I could have I would have" I'm scared. Mommy, why? Look at me Mom! I'm the daughter you should want. Look Look Mommy, why? I must be unlovable. It's so dark in here. No one cares. I don't matter. Mommy, why? I need, to hear you say, "I love you," You ask me why you should love someone like me. Mommy, why? Why can't I hear you say, "I love you. You're so beautiful. You're so precious to me. Why can't I hear you say, "I love you just because?" Oh! Jesus is here! His arms are wide open. His eyes are full of deep love and I know he wants me to throw my head on his chest and so I do. It's safe here in his arms. Jesus smells of flowers and butterflies and blue sky. I feel his tears fall on me. He holds me tight and strokes my hair. He kisses my head. Here, in his arms I know I am loved, by my Jesus, content, in my Jesus, precious, to my Jesus, wanted, by my Jesus, and loveable, to my Jesus. Just because. Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me. Ps 27:10 (C) Sally Hanan Sally is an Irish writer who now lives in the U.S. with her family.
