Ana Jusino Poet Rhyme

Luis

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
