Growth always seemed scary

Only because it seemed a lot like change

Doubt held me in its arms

And dipped me in its moonlight

Love had me at arm's length

Loneliness embraced me

Only you held me tighter

When God gifted me you

My life felt a little bit warmer and

Everything seemed just a bit brighter

Tonight I wish to hold you

Original I thought

Looking was enough but now you are an

Oasis to me and in fear or happiness I run to you

Very rarely I would thank God but I wish to say

Every time I smile I thank God for having you

And your existence is my joy

No, you’re not perfect nor do I wish you were

Thank you, God, for giving me a chance

Honesty is easy if you have nothing to lose

Obedience is good only if you have trust

Never will I say I don’t want to try

You make me want to grow…
