I wrote a poem
I wrote it for you
in hopes that you would see me true
that masks would drop
and walls would fall
and you'd see the real me
within it all
You gave me hope
when i had none
and with that all said and done
when all the shields and illusions left
You were there
you stood by me
and with you
my soul flew free
without barriers and endless weights
my heart nearly reached heavens gates
When i failed to believe in me
you pointed it out and made me see
the only thing holding me back
was me
You've stood by me
through the good
and helped me weather the bad
never have you left my side
you share my soul
a perfect reflection in spirit
there is nothing in me
that you haven't seen
either through my eyes
or through your own
For all you have done
to keep me sane
i wish that i could do the same
to aid you with your troubles
and share with you your joy
and if you will let me
we'll be friends when we are old
