i wish i could tell you
how much you light up
my soul. you brighten my
day and you keep me smiling.
when i'm crying all i really
need is you right there
beside me telling me
everything will by okay.

yesterday i freaked out
and you reassured me that
everything will end up fine.
i wanted you there to stop me from
sobbing and shaking because
i couldn't do it myself.

i wanted you to sit behind
me while i felt like breaking,
sitting on my bed, with your hands
around my stomach as a shook and shook.
with your head on my shoulder and
looking at me, as the occasional
hand reaches up and wipes
away a tear. i need you.

i need you to stay and be
the light. i need the reason
colors are brighter, the reason
everything isn't just a blur and that i'm
finally living everyday, not just
getting by. i need you to
light a path for me.

with you i can finally pick one
and continue to it. but only with you
by my side because you're honestly the light
of my life and that's not gonna change.
continue to be my light. please.
