there is this thing.
I speak vaguely because it’s hard for me to define.
it sits in the in-between, perhaps—the unseen, the here and there.
the future and the present.

there is this thing.
this feeling, this incredible awe, this incredible—
the incredible discovery that I am living here.
that I am here.

It is amazing to think that I am here.
I don’t know how to make that clear.
that I know not of my origin—

that one day—poof!

I am here.

I am incredibly grateful for being here.
and to God be all the glory.
