You've opened up my eyes to things I've never seen before.
Happiness with myself,
Peace with others.
You've taught me that's it's only a bad day,
And not a bad life.
You've shown me that every little thing,
Breathing or otherwise,
Has a certain beauty and grace to it.
You've shown me that to love is not to be entirely accepted,
But to accept entirely the things you have.
You've taught me that goodbyes are not always forever,
Because we will always live in each other's heart.
You've shown me you,
And now I know what true love looks like.
