New Born

I have yet to see, but god has given me the sight.

I have yet to hear, but god has given me the ears.

I have yet to speck, but god has given me the voice.

I have yet to feel, but god has given me the heart.

Deep within me I see darkness,

deep within me I hear an endless beat,

deep within me I stay quiet while listening to her singing,

and deep within me I feel warm.

Within the darkness, I await to see the light.

Within the endless beat, I await to hear her voice.

Within the silent dark night, I await the right time to cry out.

Within the warmness of the soul, I await the light.

My mother, who has shown me the light.

My mother, who sang to me when I was alone in the dark.

My mother, who I can cry out to her.

My mother, who kept me warm and safe.
