"Thank You"

You were the first person I ever loved

And the foremost to break my heart

The first to ever send me roses

And the first to tear my world apart.

 

You taught me how to trust myself

And to listen to my soul

Then you commenced my addiction

When you left me no control

 

You showed me how to love and laugh

And then you taught me how to cry

You disappeared months ago

Without ever declaring a good-bye.

 

I never noted its arrival

I was too blind to all the signs

Yet, my heart still beats for you

For you, are my lifeline.

 

From the first moment that I saw you

I knew you were different from the rest

Even when people snickered and declared

That you would never be the best.

 

You showed me how to laugh again

By persuading a smile to my eyes

But shortly now you�re off to school

And somehow I�ll utter good-bye

 

For months I�ve kept my love for you

Because I was frightened of your rejection

But one day soon I will hold you again

For you, are my only possession.

 

You started the flame in my eyes

And transformed it into a raging fire

You brought me to heaven and back again

For you, are my world.

 

You clutched my hand and held it tight

And wiped from my cheeks my tears

You told me that life would always go on

Then you taught me to control my fears.

 

You taught me how to stand-alone

Even though you never left my side

You showed me how to move on with my life

Rather than living as a bump on a log.

 

Thank you for everything...
