Before we met

I was used to being alone.

I liked being alone.

Before we met.

I was used to being cold.

No one could hurt me,

But myself.

Before we met.

Every day, I lost myself,

A little more.

And I knew, but I didn’t care.

Before we met.

But then we met.

And suddenly,

I didn’t want to be alone anymore.

The first time you hugged me,

You melted through all the ice,

Around my heart.

And every time i saw you after,

I felt the same warmth.

You made me fall in love with life again.

You made me fall in love with you.

You made me want to be better,

You make me want to be the best I can be.

And you give me the energy I need,

To get there.

I have seen rock bottom,

Before we met.

And I never quite understood,

Why didn’t it end there?

But then I met you.

You believe in god,

And I fell in love with his kindest angel.

I continued breathing,

So you could take my breath away.

I walked away from this bridge in the night,

So I could see the sun rise with you.

I kept on fighting,

So you could see me win.
