You helped me up

September 11, 2018

You helped me on my first day of school when

I was crying in the hall not wanting to go in

You helped me when I was 12 and I needed a shoulder

to cry on after all the hurt and betrayal I faced from

fellow classmates and people I considered my 'friends'

You helped me up when I found out my mother might be

dying from something that no one could control but god

You helped me up when I was 15 and started hanging out with

the wrong crowd at school thinking I was so cool

You helped me up when all I could do was cry because I was

so troubled by the people in my life

You helped me up when you saw me spiraling down going nowhere

and encouraged me to focus on school because it would all get better

You helped me up every step of the way through life when no one else would, everyone turning away because I was 'unhelpable'

You are my true hero, you have eternally helped me up and I am forever thankful and owe you all my successes and achievements

because YOU HELPED ME UP
