in my eyes
i am but a no body
a young girl
full of dreams and wishes
not sure if they will ever
come to pass
i look at others and admire
hoping i could be
half the people they are
i would be satisfied
but wait
you shake your head
you do not agree with me
i am not just anything you say
i am a child of God
and that counts for more
than i can ever desire for
on this world
i am co heir
of the heavenly kingdom
with Jesus
i am not just anything
i am double dg
drop dead gorgeous
beautiful and i
are synonyms
i am the head not the tail
my portion is to be a lender
not a borrower
i can do all things
through Christ
who strengthens me
i am not just anything
i do not need
to be anyone else
for in you, Lord
i am complete
you and I
are a multitude
and just in case i did not know
i am a masterpiece
well thought of
and carefully crafted
i am not an after thought
something created during God’s pastime
i have a purpose on this world
and anyone blind to see that
needs their eyes checked
i am not just anything
i am the best me out there
and no, i need not compete
for no one is in my league
i do not care which league you’re in
i do not desire to qualify
to play in it
i am ok with mine
i am not just anything
that is what
my Creator told me.
