I was always quick to judge, so caught up in my own world that I failed to notice what truly mattered. I wanted so badly to be freed of all the stress, but I was too afraid to be heard. Immersed in my own self-degradation, I just followed orders. I lost my strength, my courage, and I sacrificed my voice and opinions. I was an empty shell, a cloud of nothingness erupting from a porcelain façade of perfection. I was stripped of individuality. I had nothing to lose…

…until you.

Everything seemed so futile at the time…it felt as if you were too good a dream to be real. But I soon came to realize that first impressions are not always correct. I began to notice that you were more than what you seemed, more than my affiliates made you out to be. You were an opportunity, a chance. You were a once in a lifetime occasion for beautiful things…

…you were happiness.

You changed me. How, I will never be able to comprehend…all I know is that it happened, and how truly grateful I am for it. You brought out a part of me that otherwise would have been hidden forever. You showed me that material wealth is not of importance, but how you spend your days, how you live your life that really counts.

You pulled me to safety; I argued.

You heard me out; I accused.

You spoke about life; I listened.

You showed me your world; I craved.

You tried to help me; I ran.

You never gave up on me; I trusted.

You gave your life for me; I loved you.

You saved me…

…and I still do.

The End.
