Existence
Your existence was created by another.
And you are an offspring to someone who
you could not select out from a crowd.
But if you had the choice would you pick them and say?
"I want to make them proud!"
Before your birth, if you could mismatch
everything about your appearance
would you choose your face from billions of faces?
Would you point to your body and say?
"Bless me with this!"
If you could,
come and go without resistance?
Would you remain here?
Or disappear into nonexistence?
But since you have already been created,
the life you know must be made yours!
This time, you are the only one
who can make the choice;
To remember that your existence
and unique appearance is what
makes the world so dazzling!
