Because of You

Contributed by Dierna on Friday, 21st May 2004 @ 03:06:32 PM in AEST
Topic: FriendshipPoetry

It's all because of you
That everything has changed.
If it wasn't for you,
I'd still be deranged.
If not for you,
I'd still be shy.
But all my friends have noticed,
more confidence in my stride.
You made me want to better,
and no longer settle for "par".
Now I must do my best,
because I have you in my heart.
I'm a better person now in general,
because I always think of you.
I want so many people to know,
that someone can care, like for me, you do.
And then there are things less noticed,
some things that I never knew.
But now I know they changed,
all because of you.
I've always been depressed,
I thought it was the norm.
But now I'm finally happy,
and no longer want to do myself harm.
You put a smile on my face,
and melted my icy heart.
If it wasn't for you,
I'd still be torn apart.
You put me back together,
and made me finally whole.
And now I have to say this,
because I just want you to know...
You are the best thing in my life,
and I'll never let you go.
Because if you weren't in my life,
there'd be this giant hole.
Sucking everything out of me,
and making me want to die.
Thoughts of suicide would be in my head
at every point in time.
But hopefully that will never happen,
because you are my best friend,
and to lose you forever,
I know would be my end.
So thank you for the changes,
and taking away my fright.
I just can't thank you enough, hunny,
for just being in my life.
Thank you.
