Thank You

I used to cry myself to sleep

then you came along.

I would wake up in the middle of the night

then you came along.

I thought everything would go wrong

then you came along.

I believed I was unwanted and broken

then you came along.

 

You didn't pull me up.

Instead you sat right down next to me

and told me I am everything I thought I wasn't.

You knew how I felt,

and never judged me.

I know your story is different than mine,

and because of that, you helped me.

I'm still not the best that I've been, 

but I wouldn't be here

 

if you hadn't come along.

 

It seems crazy to say

that you've changed my life,

but I'd be lying I said

you didn't help me.
