In the beginning, I was alone.

In search of a best friend to smile with.

You arrived with a big heart

and open arms.

You walked me to the edge of the house

just to show me a rolie polie in the ground.

After every tear drop, you taught me how to smile.

Downstairs, you took me to the doors

that were to never open.

You told me that it’s just the beginning.

The doors of trust were opened

Which led me down a pathway

of everlasting happiness.

Thank you.

Thank you for always being there

in my grays.

For bringing out my true

identity and for being my

post to rest on.

You promised to be my shade

I promised to be yours

Forever and always,

you are a blessing.
