cast away and drowning in a sea of time
I missed you before we met
it took 29 years for my life to begin
as if my lungs never understood
the purpose of a breath
until I was breathing for you
as if we survive to sustain waiting
till life rewards the efforts of staying alive
I was no one till I was yours
and love gave me an identity
never seen till I was revealed in light of you
am I worth my weight in the way you look at me
as I live up to the value your heart bestows on me
appraised by priceless eyes
learning to decipher what you see
knowing my every flaw
and like the grace of God, still
you love me...
