Because of YOU

After being so long in the darkness,

I thought I would be trapped there forever

never to see the light

ever again

Suddenly you came along

bringing light to my world

joy, laughter and happiness 

things so foreign to me

Being outcasted

Being "special"

Unwanted

and Lonely

Darkness was all around

I tried so hard to fight it

but slowly

I got dragged into it too

But all of the sudden

you came along

easily pulled me out of my despair

and brought me to the light

Opening my eyes

and show me a side of the world

I hidden from

Opening your heart

to show me 

what I am worth 

Often told I was useless

Often named fat and stupid

Slowly I came to believed all of that

and become so ashamed of myself

Lowering my head 

and isolating myself

loneliness and sorrow for my company

But you came along

show me 

the gem of me

I truly am

Suddenly I become so beautiful

seeing a side of me 

I never seen before

Because of you

I am who I am

Because of you

I can see all the light and colour

my world actually has

Because all along you were by my side

so I believe I can fly

With you

I believe anything and everything is possible

Thank you for being my friend
