A Sentence

It is not an
Exaggeration to say
Some moments
It feels like
My heart
Might explode

Several chapters
Lived over time
Love, joy, grief
Converge at once
Holding hands
Across my story

One sweet sentence
From a paragraph
That I never
Want to forget
Though impossible
To clearly express

Lately, emotions seem to well up, catching me by surprise.

A sweet conversation with Mom. A moment of missing Dad. Crying on my husband’s shoulder. Chats with my adult children. Watching my son and daughter-in-law care for my granddaughter.

Both the enormity and the smallness of life collide. And I feel every single moment right in the center of my chest. ❤️

  1. Kelley, thank you for your beautiful vulnerability and honesty. Your heart is so beautiful; just as your words. I feel this with you. My emotions lately just come as quick as rain. “Both the enormity and the smallness of life collide”. Where joy and sorrow meet. Much love, Kelley. I pray for you and yours. In many ways, I carry you in my heart. 💛🙏🏻
