The First Time I Died

_______________________

The first time I drowned
Was in a sea of fear
Alone in the depths
No one to hear my tear

I struggled and fought
But my strength gave out
I sank deeper and deeper
My last breath no doubt

Just as I surrendered
And let go of life
A savior appeared
In the midst of my strife

Ali Garga, the name
I will never forget
The one who pulled me up
And breathed life in my breath

The memory still lingers
Of that first time I died
But in it, I found hope
And a friend by my side
