Grace
I tried,
I tried really really hard.
To be good enough, smart enough.
I became who he wanted me to be,
a good son who praised him.
Still that wasn’t enough, nowhere near enough.
I was no longer me.
I thought God was the same as dad.
So I hid myself. A cosmic game of Hide and seek.
That was when I learned, there was no need to hide.
God has always and will forever Love me.
Through Grace I embrace my gifts.
