You Showed Me Love Is Real

You showed me hope when I thought all was lost
You showed me love when all seen was hate 
You showed me passion when all I seen was pain
You showed me how to be brave when I was afraid 
You showed me strength when I was weak
You showed me light when all I seen was darkness 
You showed me life when all I seen was death 
You showed me attention when all I seen was loneliness 
You showed me how to believe in myself when I doubted 
You showed me love is real when I thought it was a fairy tale
You showed me courage when I was a coward 
You showed me the real me when I thought I was to far gone 
You showed me me
