There For Me

You encourage me out the door
 to dance in the rain
You lure me out of the blues
 to live for the day
You hold me together
 when I start to crumble
You catch my tears
 as easily as you praise my talents

I try to greet each day as the person
 you’ve inspired me to be
And when I cannot, you are there
