A special scene of you and me,
describes our relationship perfectly...
I didn\'t know
how to get the words out,
but when I did—
I told you all the things
I could be,
and you told me,
I\'m still me.
You knew I had a secret,
that you could feel me
holding my breath
from across the room.
You told me
I get to exhale now,
to be more myself
than I\'ve ever been.
And in that moment,
I blushed, smiled, cried—
looked away,
avoided your gaze,
and thanked God,
and all my lucky stars,
for having you in my life.
The weight I carried,
was lifted off my shoulders,
and with it,
all my boulders.
I knew you\'d understand.
I knew you\'d take my hand.
You didn\'t judge me.
You simply accepted me,
loved me, for who I am,
loved me, for me.
No one else.
Just me.
It was more than words
could ever say or do.
And so,
I thank you.
