They tried to build me. They tried to build me so I didn't fall again. They kept failing though. I kept crashing back down. They started getting tired. Because they had their own life, they had to build up other people who meant more to them. I was left, crashing slowly each day. Until I became something I never thought I would be. Then he reached out, and I started building myself up. But I would stumble and fall. He would stay and watch me. Making sure I didn't fall to far. He was there at night when I needed someone. He counts the days with me. I have to admit, at first I thought he would leave. If he hadn't been here. I don't think I would be where I am. Slowly building myself up every-day. Slowly becoming who I want to be.

Build me up.
