"I pray God provides the duct tape and someone to apply it!

I pray Jesus provides the super glue and someone to squeeze the tube!

My body is not broken that I am aware of, but my mind, heart, and soul are in need of their tape and super glue!

I have left so many down and I don't know how to mend the hurts and disappointments! I am truly sorry!

I wish I wasn't a broken man and could have been stronger!

Someone told me recently that I hide it well! It's not hidden, only suppressed."
