I'm thankful that you stared at me when I thought I'd never be worth staring at.
I'm thankful for all the secrets and dreams you told me.
I'm thankful for every word you spoke and/or texted me.
I'm thankful for the way you made me feel, even the bad ways.
I'm thankful for the gentleness you put in your touch.
I'm thankful you took an interest in knowing why I'm so quiet.
I'm thankful for the things you taught me, like how I'm more than what I thought I was.
I'm thankful for you letting me in.
I'm thankful for the way you cared.
I'm thankful for the time I spent with you.
I'm thankful for the tears you've made me cry, because it let's me know I can feel again, when I thought I couldn't before we dated.
I'm thankful I got to know the real you.
And I am forever thankful for you. Just you. Your existence. Because even though you're not in my life anymore, it makes me happy to know you're walking this same earth as me.
