Thing that I can't live without



You keep me alive everyday

Yet I don't even realize it

You keep my body going

even when least expected

Many others really appreciate what you do for them.

So do I

Others tend to bring you down and tell lies

But i want to be able to see it with my own eyes.

Even though you are inside of us

We tend to talk and show you off

And when i say that

I mean like a lot.

So for this I thank you for keeping me up

Whenever I'm down

For whenever no one helped me

You're love brought me up when I was not.

I'm short, a musician but trying to branch off into other things. And I like talking and meeting new people.
