Who You Are

Don’t you

Be afraid

I’m with you

I’ve been with you

From the moment

You sucked in

Your first tiny breath

I was in that breath

Flooding your system

With Me

I was that air

You breathed

I was in the

Loving arms 

Who wrapped around you

Those were my

Strong arms

I’ve surrounded you

Every moment

Of every day

Never leaving

Patiently waiting

For your awakening

For you 

To remember

Who you are
