Set Apart ©Dawn Minott

On By Dawn MinottIn Poetry

Before you were formed
Before the light first touched your eyes
You were known, by God
Before your first breath
Before the world shaped your name
You were set apart, by God

God meant for you to be different
To walk paths no one else would see
To dance to beats of rhythms only your heart hears
No one thinks the way you do
A mind weaving thoughts to a unique purpose
No one speaks in the rhythm you carry
A voice carrying a distinctive resonance

You were not meant to fit in
To blend into the mediocrity of sameness
You were created to stand out
Your colors painted to shine bright
In a world of echoes, you are a distinct refrain
In a sea of stars, you are the main sequence
You were born to be—
Unmistakably you
Eternally known
Eternally set apart

God said: Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart … (Jeremiah 1:5)
