I cut,
You drank,
It seemed deeper and deeper,
We both sank,
I'd stumble,
You'd crumble,
But you always told me to never fumble,

You gave me something to hold close,
Something I've never had in my life,
In my eyes,
You were like a god,
The center of my life.

The walls came down,
The things that surrounded me,
But now I see,
You showed me how to stand in the light,
Gave me the will to fight.

I haven't always been the one to hold on,
I haven't always been the one to stay strong,
I've popped pills for pain,
I've dealt with shame,
I've been afraid of everything.

I've left myself with nothing,
Hoping,
Just praying out to something
That maybe someday I'll have a meaning,
Maybe some day my strength will cease in receding.

But I've learned that with every breath comes hardships of it's own,
And though you could say that I'm barely half grown...
I've grow to love,
I will admit,
That's the meaning of my life,
And I refuse to let go of it,
No matter the pain or strife.
