You Changed Me

you came as a friend,
just like every other friend, 
you comforted me.
you changed me and I am overwhelmed.

you deserve a token of thanks,
you made me able to speak my mind.
the fear of being hurt drifted away for good,
you changed me and I am overwhelmed.

when everyone was willing to reject me,
you took me by both hands.
kept me warm during the night,
you changed me and I an overwhelmed.

you thought me how to forgive,
you made me learn how to laugh.
just a little smile was all I ever needed,
but you gave me one from ear to ear.

when the world seemed so dark,
you were my little lamp of faith.
you made me see that tomorrow will never be like today and yesterday,
you changed me and I am overwhelmed
