I Started In Darkness
I live in dark water that surrounds me
And yearn for my short journey to the light
Break free of confinement and feel first breath
It's there where the anxious wait for my breath
As there is no one more fragile than me
I've struggled for months so my eyes see light
Open your heart, welcome me to your light
And give me hope with my very first breath
To hold me close and always cherish me
To guide me through darkness, give light and breath
