It Was You

by Poet

It was You
who held the pieces together
the day my daddy died.
and when i would not
be comforted you cried
because i cried.
You were the one
who held me close to You
as i cried myself to sleep
each night.
and when i felt like giving up
You told me
it would be alright.
it was You 
who gave me bread to eat.
You were the one who quenched my thirst.
gave me a new beginning and
a different kind
of birth.
it was then i chose to love You
but You chose
to love me first.
yeah, You chose
to love
me first.
