When I was close to giving up
When I was close to letting go
You gave me purpose
You gave me reason

Reason to push through
Reason to stay
Reason to step back from the edge
Reason to see the positives and fight

I was ready to accept lonely space
I was ready to leave all my troubles aside
I wanted to blame the things that happened on myself
but...
You came along and showed me comfort
You came and gave me reassurance
The positive in myself when I did not see it

Reason to smile
Reason to laugh
Reason to say yes to socialization
Reason to step out and be myself

You took the feeling of being useless away
You replaced it with worth
You took the feeling of loneliness
and replaced it with love
You took the feeling of disappointment
and replaced it with success

The scary part about letting go
is accepting the better opportunity ahead
You are the reason I know my worth
You are the reason I won't let go
