Before you gave me Hope

I had Faith.

When you first accepted all I was,

a diamond without shine,

I had already chosen you.

Each moment after,

I glistened a little more in your hand

hoping I'd earn my true light.

Through your love and caring,

some not so easy days

and over hours of feeling not good enough,

I discovered my natural shine.

If I seem to not shine so brightly now

it is because I'm earning my new glisten alone.

I have glowed and shined in your pride filled hands.

Now I'm learning to glow and shine

through pride in myself.
