How I came to be

The God

who created the stars 

and the sun 

and the mountains 

and the planes

gazed over it all,

then added me

 

Cause He looked at a field of ornate roses and lilies,

felt something missing,

and added a little daisy

a small flower, 

with shallow roots,

but loved it just the same

 

He doesn't need me

but he wants me

even though I've hurt him 

even though he knew I'd turn my back

 

The God of the stars 

loved me into being

 

and so here I am

Lost but he leads me

Hurt but he heals me

with my fair share of hate, but he loves me

 

I don't know why

but maybe that doesn't matter

 

Because the God of the stars 

loved me into being

    but something in me loves

    to dance just out of death's reach

    to swerve between its fingers,

    there, but impossible to grasp

     

    letting an inch decide my next breath

    it makes me feel
