You came into my life
Without so much as asking, or a knock on the door
You barged right in and made a mess of it all
But you forever changed who I am
Transformed what was bare,
Colorless and comatose
To a beating heart, filled with life
Your presence, though it made a mess, made me whole
It made me glad, to know you at all
You made me feel at ease, at peace
You made me see that life wasn't all that bad
You taught me to smile, to laugh
But like all things, like all other things in life,
You left just the same
Truly I am glad I had a glimpse of you
Be it even just a glimpse, a glance
But I promise, this encounter, I'll treasure forever
