Hear my cry, oh God; listen to my prayer. From the end of the earth I call to You, when my heart is faint. Psalm 61:1-2a
Did she cry out to God? All I heard from her broken body was deep, throaty moan that tore beyond my conciousness to my deepest soul. She was face down on the cement, her broken wrist bloodless and bent unnaturally. Within that wrist, the white bone glistened in the late morning. I was sickened, traumatized. Even as I moved away knowing that I could do nothing for her beyond telling people not to move her shattered head, I could still hear the moans, deep and penetrating, echoing in the cavern of my shock. Her still, shattered body was etched into my private mind's eye, relegated to a closet where nightmares arise. Perhaps the greatest horror is that she is me, was me, could be me. Me, without hope, me without a voice to whisper my pain. Me, without knowledge that God hears me. |
