They have made me feel special
And this matters so much.
Yourself is not enough.
With the love from them
it makes me dependent.
For I am not me
without them in it.
I am independent and unique
Because of the dependence I did not seek.
A bit confusing.
Well they simply constructed the pieces of myself.
I didn't know I needed help.
They did this,
Through, uncontrollable laughter
echoing in my heart days after.
To deep talks that walk into my soul
widening the mystery or understanding
of myself as a whole.
From challenging moments of being opposed
but making me more open minded, and less closed.
Also, the simple gratitude they would say
which reminded me that I'm okay.
I think about them, many times.
I fear that I'll lose some of you,
and people like them, I will not find.
I only wish the best for my friends,
my angels I thank God he has sent.
