"Ode to Baba"

Today I cried because I did not have you
Cried cause I lost the things that connected me to you

Forgot where I put the secret to finding you

Today I tried to laugh with you,
While you laughed at me, for not know how to laugh
Told me I was, Enough-
I hid under rocks and
Cried again, afraid I could not live up to your standards

Today I looked up and I saw you, standing over me
With your heart in your hand...

You gave me your robe, and told me to its okay to cry
That you would hold my secrets close
My fears closer, you told me that you would not
Let my fear control me
You told me that you would allow me to laugh
Showed me how to smile, made me see I am enough

Today I called your name and you responded
Yes, Omo....


Hekua Baba....
