Sacred

One day
I will birth you from my heart
You will look to me and I will give you nourishment
Your hand will grasp mine
And I will gladly sing you lullabies
As your tiny head rests upon my chest
Eyes closing behind a veil of innocence
Forever protected and scared no more.

I will lift you up to the heavens
In harmonious praise for your life
You will mount my shoulders, head to the sky
Looking forward and never back
I will be your song when your voice is lack
Even when there are times when you will make mistakes and learn
I will never quench your fire that churns

You will be sacred
A phoenix by day and beautiful stone by night
That shines bright between both worlds as if diamonds cried tears
This world you will ignite and make right
Your ancestors shall sing your name
Your ancestors shall sing of your spirit.
