You Gave Me All

I sit here now and think of you, Of all the things you put me through, Through thick and thin, the good, the bad, Of each experience that we had. You saw me to the very end, A broken heart, that's hard to mend. I know you thought I didn't care, I saw you through a numbing stare, But you're the one I found was true, And I was lucky to have you. You gave me peace amongst the war, I thought that's what my friends were for. You told the truth when others lied, You calmed me down, my patience tried. You taught me how to always win, To swim the waters I was in. Devotion was next on your list, For I still feel our true first kiss. Compassion, tolerance, and love, Were sent with you from up above. I can see it in your eyes, And with one's strength, The other flies.
