When You Came

You made me see the world through your eyes, your smile, your way too cheesy jokes and the way you listened and slowly it stopped, I didn't feel alone, I didn't feel like I had to fake a smile, and I realized there were things in this life worth living for. The summer you came was the summer I discovered why I was alive.
There was a time where I couldn't truly smile at myself in the mirror a time where everything in the world seemed to be against me and I blamed myself for it. That was before you came and after he left, you made me come out of the darkness and showed me my inner light by shining yours brightly on me even on days where all I wanted was to be left alone. I regret that now, wishing for you to leave me alone, you the shining star of my life the person who made me want to keep going. It's been five years now and despite being happy with my life the way it is I cant help thinking back to that summer when you came and my life finally began.......
