Because of You

I told myself I wouldn't try it but I was the first one signed up I told myself I wouldn't like it but I was the one crying when it was over I told myself I hated you but I was the one running into your arms at the end I told myself I wouldn't keep coming back but each year there I was but each year was different because you were only there for the first You changed my life in unbelievable ways I can't explain the realizations you helped my mind conjure up. I told myself I wouldn't cry but I can't help it because if it weren't for you I wouldn't be who I am today. Because of you, I am me.
