Thank you for changing me,
Everyday I’m with you I get closer to who I want to be.
You’re my life jacket in a sea of bad decisions,
You’re holding my hand tightly through this transition.

You revise my tears into a smile,
no one has been able to do that in a while.
You transform my pain into power;
You’re making me bloom, just like a spring flower.

My insecurities have died out,
Finally, a storm of acceptance comes after years of drought.
I need you like a heart needs a beat
to stand up on my own two feet.

Even when I shut down and push you away,
you still, always stay.
You tear down the walls I’ve created.
Thank you for killing the person I hated.
