Surprised by God

There is a place where the
wounded soul goes to hide
a place that cannot be reached by
human caring
though it nods at the effort.
It's a dark, retractable place,
without windows and doors;
a place where the soul would be
more alone than it has ever known
unless Someone -
Someone able to walk through walls -
was not already there waiting
