You were the first to reach out to me ...the first to actually see. You were the first who cared To tell me you were there. I never let anyone in, Never told anyone my sins... Then you came along, Telling me I was strong. Yes, it is true. I did not believe you, But you kept telling me... Hoping for one day I would see. I guess you were right, You were the one who got me to write. And after I wrote my first few, I realized... I was really blue. It took you a while, But you got me to really smile. You got me to tell you my mistakes, And believe me, they were not fake. It was so hard for me to trust, For everyone I knew left me in the dust. You told me I was hope, I laughed because I had none and for that I didn't know how to cope. You helped me every single day, Had me follow your ways. Yes, it was a hard fight, For there were days I didn't want you in my sight. But now I am here, Battling all of my fears. I couldn't have done this without you, Honestly I don't know what I would do. You're my true friend, For you stayed through the end. Making sure I was alright, Showing me to the light. Thank you
