You’re proud of me?
You say that I’m amazing because I find a passion and I go after it?;
That I know what I love and am not afraid to push my way into that field.

I don’t think anyone has ever been so kind to me.
You have helped me open up my heart.
I am so used to keeping my heart locked into a box on the top shelf of a locked cabinet.
I never let anyone in past the cabinet.
You may be able to pick the lock of the it easily,
It’s just a basic lock and key.
But the box my heart rests inside, is more complicated.
The lock can only open to a very specific three words.
Find these three words and I am yours eternally.
These three words,
Are the most important and
The most powerful in all of my existence.

But you.
You make me feel comfortable enough to let my guard down.
You challenge me to constantly push my thinking,
Constantly push me past my comfort zones.

I know that if you ever hurt me,
It will never be intentional.

Because of you,
I am confident enough in myself to pursue my dreams.
I can pursue them because I know you will be there for me.
You’ll be there for me,
Whether I fail,
Or I succeed.

I know all of this for one simple reason.
You have already cracked the code to my heart lock.
You learned the most important words so long ago,
And I am forever grateful for you.
