Because of You

I had met a lot of uncaring hearts

Been through so much pain

You could have been one of those cold people

But thank heavens because you were not.

I had known it is sometimes not easy to be around me

Especially when I was having one of my mood swings

You could have just walked out on me just like anyone else

But you never did.

I had made a lot of promises and broken some of them

I had done many mistakes, even kept doing some repeatedly

You could have just given up and lost your faith in me

But you kept on believing.

I had hurt you and let you down many times

You could have just left but you didn't

You said you couldn't because I was and will always be your friend

And so you stayed and made the difference among them all.

When others had turned their backs on me

You had been there to give me the will to carry on

When others had found me too difficult

You had been there to understand and love me more.

You have been touching my life in ways that only you can

And you helped me bring out the best that I am

What I am now is because of you

You who always unfailingly gave me your best and your all.
