I Am
written for BAC2ONE 2017
I am enough, I learn to say.
I do not have to bend and sway
To every random gust or breeze.
I was not born to people-please.
I am worthy of love and care.
I choose to love and greatly dare.
I will not hide my colors from
People who may think I'm dumb.
I am gifted with unique art.
I've words to say from my shy heart.
The stories only I can tell
May resonate with you as well.
I am loved by my family
Who've seen the best and worst of me.
I have support from loyal friends.
I'm grateful God's love never ends.
I am His child, and when I trip,
He catches me in His firm grip.
So when I get into a jamb,
I know I'm His, I always am.
I am sustained in every way.
You raise me up, You make my day.
You are the God of Abraham.
I am because You are “I AM."
