The One Who Knows



Where would I be
Without HIM who is me
He stays the whole night long
Teaching me his guarded secrets
Telling me those moments of my past
So I may know me in totality
And never missing the point
To show those areas of myself
Where I need to know to grow

As the hour approches
He tells me it is time to rise
And do all those things
He has in mind
All day long he stays --
Laughing at my misconceptions
But loving me in spite of them
He seems to understand so perfectly
Exactly who I am
