Family


Before the light shone on my new face,

My family was already around me, 

The first born child, I am the newest roots to my lineage.

Who runs through my veins, 

Who I unconditionally love,

Who I can always forgive for hurt they've caused.

My family is not perfect,

My family is divided,

But no matter, I am Connected to My Family.
