27

twenty seven years ago...
i drew my first breath and then let it out in a scream
my eyes were, for the first time, flooded with light and i squeezed them tight to shut it out
i met the two persons who would be the one's to know me and love me more than anyone else
and on that day i was held for the first time in their arms

they couldn't have dreamed i'd be where i am today
but He knew
He who gave my first breath
whose gaze held me long before my existence was known to any other
whose light filled my mind before i knew or saw with my eyes
Him whose love filled my heart with song before i could utter sound
He who knows my deepest and my darkest and still gives nothing other than pure love

may the words of my mouth, the meditations of my mind
the songs of my heart, and even the simple breath of these lungs
please you and bring you honor and delight
