today i thought about
how many hearts are
breaking at
any given time
and then i thought in my overwhelmedness
that i’m glad i’m not superman
because he can hear all of that and more
and how much my heart breaks
for those whose hearts are broken
already
and then i realized
that Jesus knows the broken hearted too
in a real way and deeper than
any figment of superhero imaginings
and whereas neither
superman or i
could actually fix a broken heart
Jesus
can make them completely
new.
