Be still

Kaleb Phipps 1996 (Lebanon, Ky)

Narrative
Not going to lie I’m wanting to die. Holding all these tears I’m wanting to get rid of all these years. I want to be in motion but I’m just dealing with these emotions. Siting in my room today I’m ready for God to take me away. After the screams and tears I’m ready to lose my years… Then I hear a voice say “Be still for I am here”.
