Because Of You

Emily Lauren Davis 1987 (Louisiana)



Because of you
I smile more
I laugh more
You make me believe
Because of you
I love more
I trust more
And now I can see
Because of you
My walls are  down
Allowing you in
Trusting your words
Never in a million years
Would I have thought id get what I deserve
Because of you
I have more hope
I have so much more joy
You build me up
You treat us right
You help me
You guide me
You keep me sane
When in all reality
I’m mentally drained
Your the calm to my storm
My light in this world
Reminding me daily
My worth and much more.
I love you and thank you
For all that you do
And promise to always be there
Hand and hand with you!!
