Understanding

Before
I breathe
My first breathe,
I Knew
The
Pain of
Separation. At my
Mother’s breast,
I
Knew the
Loneliness of being
Human. At
My
Father’s knee,
I learned the
Price of
Freedom.
In my
Grandfather’s eyes, I
Learned the
Fear
Of dying,
But it was
In my
Child’s
Love that
I found the
True meaning
Of
My life.
