Princess

I never remember feeling like a princess.

I think from the beginning-

I felt like I didn’t matter to anyone- 

felt all alone

Have always felt alone…

Look at me…

I can swim!

Look at me…

I can ride bike!

Look at me…

I hit the ball!

Look at me…

I slid down the hill!

I skated without falling…

I got an A!!!

But no one ever saw me…

What is this? 

Are you speaking 

to me God?

They told me I wasn't

 important enough,

 for You 

to talk to me…

for You to give me a gift or a word or a dream or a vision or a song or a dance….

What is this? 

 You have a song You sing over me????

You want to dance with me????

You like to be with me????

I’m beautiful???

What is this?  I’m Your princess???

Yes, I’m Your princess…..
