Born To Become

What makes me so different from you In your eyes, the abode of your heart Where is my place, that nook you have carved out The trail in the sands of our time Leading me along the path you have destined for me Creating, shaping and sculpting my essence Is it those jewels which define your core existence For if it is then we are at par you see I store mine in the innermost centre of my being That same depth from whence you emerged Screaming and gasping for the life source Only i could have provided with such love and awe Who gives you the authority to call yourself My master, my sole provider, my superior Must be the ancient words scribbled on parchment You took to be the sceptre and crown of your kingdom Or perhaps laws laid down by those who come before you Condemning me to a life of permanent subservience Enough! WE say. No screaming, no weeping WE are the pillars on which you built this castle Hear my voice and walk a journey in my shoes We are not so different you and i I was made from you. you are borne of me Make me your Queen as you have been my King.

Didi, We are all God's children. He loves us equally. So, we must do our best to choose right. If we succeed, we can be life's queen. Your writring is deep. Keep on keeping on. Lovingly, Dane
