i am so happy i found this secret place
where i can whisper the secrets of my heart to you
you have always listened to my cries for mercy
you have always loved my broken heart
you have always gather my shattered pieces
into your hands
like precious gems
and beheld them
cherished them
valued me
unlike any father known to mankind
you have written lines of love upon my hands
upon my heart
you have given me a place
a new start
where i can run free
of all that has smothered me
you have been a beauty to me
in the quiet place
you have given me peace
in the midst of death
you breathe light into my lungs
and we have only just begun
we have just begun
