Because of You

Because you loved me, 
I know how to love. 
Because you cared for me, 
I know how to care.
Because you were there for me, 
I now can be there for you.
Because you believed in me, 
I can believe in you.
Because you helped me through hard times, 
I can help you through too.
Because of you, 
I know what it is to win and to lose.
Everything I do, 
I learned it from you.
Only because of you, 
my life has meaning and truth.
Who would of knew 
I'd learn so much from you being you.
                                                          
                                                  Thank you
