Another One of God's Alternatives

i am a better man just by being a scene on your presence
i do not know how you broke through my shield, but i am glad that you proved me wrong
you got a grip on my arm's length and made me come closer
putting up with me, i guess that is what it takes
i laugh at the oftentimes absurdity of my unorthodox shyness
the fact the i am appreciated by you upgrades me in a way i would have ever imagined
i still backslide a bit, but you just pull me along and say 'come on'
you showed me what i was missing and what i was completely blind to
you took my regrets in your hand and made homemade drop biscuits in ascension
now i have stories, memories, and something to look forward to
i am a better man just by being a mere observer in your essence
