I wasn't always as I am now
Which might come as a surprise.

I ran through my life, wishing it would end
Hating every day I was alive.

I refused my friends help
I didn't think it could do any good.

I was lost, hiding in the shadows
That I thought protected me.

I was hurting and I didn't believe in love
I saw it as a slow death.

Then you appeared in my world

With your bright smile and happy face.

You became so close to me

I'm not sure how it happened.

I realized that you meant more to me

Then just a friend.

I thought maybe just maybe

I might love you.

Then one day, you looked at me

Your amber brown eyes were so warm.

You told me you loved me

And hated when I was sad.

I thought back to the last three months

And how you had changed my life.

I was happy again

I looked forward to life again.

I looked back at you

And took you in my arms.

I whispered 'I love you too."
And I meant it.

You've saved my life
and I owe you so much.

Without you I would be dead
And I mean that seriously.

Thank you my love,
Thank you for making me live.
