Before Now-For Kalyan and Meili

Before you drew your first breath, before you opened your eyes,
Before you stretched your arms in this world, you were a dream of mine.

Before the sunlight touched your face, before you gazed at the stars,
Before you reached for my hand to hold, you had a place in my heart.

Before, when you had yet to be born, before you came to be.
Before I knew what love could be like, you were alive in me.

Now that love has its own beating heart, now its voice a song,
Now that you are at rest in my arms, you are where you belong.
