4. Thank You

Sleeping with eyes open, smiling when tears choked my eyes

Thats how I felt sometimes, when we used to fight

Waking up to no Good Morning texts from you

Felt like the world falling apart

Still you were the one, for whom I was working hard

Those times when I wondered in the dark

Hit rock bottom, went deeper into the water

You'd bring me back, pull me up and hold me tight

You said," We'll stick together, no matter how much we fight."

I was getting better, my demons scared from your light, left me alone

You showed me how to be bright

And I was happy, I was beaming, my mind

Clear like the dew, hanging on the edge of the leaf blade

I've never felt so alive from within, no longer dead

You took care of me so well, I forgot my worries

But I knew, soon you'll be tired

I've put too much burden on you

So even when I felt low, sometimes

I'd rather stay quiet

If you got bored of me, there's nothing much I can say

Really can't blame you, can I?

Never really thought someone would understand 

my pain and give me healing

As much as you hurt me sometimes, you had

loved me too

Keeping aside everything that is going on right now,

I just wanted to say

Thank you, love.

For loving me so.
