Watching You Grow

You have been hiding so long,

drifting, in a pond of confusion.

Even so,

you are connected, my friend,

to a love far greater than

the one with which you

struggle on this earth.



No longer can you be a prisoner

in your little pond,

for the ocean is there;

its turbulence is mild

compared to the the little body

of water in which you swim.



The gate to the future is open.

It is yours; embrace it.

When you think I am not looking,

my friend,

I am watching you grow.
