A Hero

Everyday I try to make it on my own, 
but my strength isn't there.
I always feel like I need a push,
and like someone to care.
True people are hard to come by,
like the ones that will never hurt you,
or tell you a complete lie.

I kept looking to find someone to talk to,
But I gave up because there was nobody who cared but you.
You're a blessing from God and I feel like you're my hero,
and someone that's going to stay.
Because I feel like I'd be lost if you were to leave and push me away.
