This room is beautiful.
It's nice
It's comfortable
It's quiet

This room is meant to be a place of rest
Of relaxing
Of healing
Of safety

But it's not. At least not to me.

This room is a place of temptation
Of sadness
Of desires
Of loneliness

Temptation to return to the old ways of life
No one to stop me
Or hold me accountable

Sadness from the distance
That is so apparent
That cannot be lessened

Desires to resort to what is easier
What takes less brain power
What takes less commitment

Loneliness that is overwhelming
That cannot be taken away
That cannot be overcome

This room was meant for healing
For spending time with the Lord
For growing deeper with Him

But it's not. At least not to me

This room is where Satan wants to stay
To tempt me
To pull me away
To remove all the good that has happened

I hate the way Satan has twisted it
The way I want to fall back into it
The way I don't want to fight it

I hate this room
