I used to be numb inside,
I didn’t want to try new things,
I didn’t care about my health,
I didn’t care if I lived or died,
I was just going through the motions of life,
  Content to remain stagnant and miserable,
Then one day I started to care,
I wanted to be better,
I wanted to live,
I wanted to try new things,
I suddenly cared,
I had met a person,
This person believed in me,
This person inspired me to find myself,
This person may not change the world,
  But they changed my world,
I will be forever thankful,
Someday I hope to be that person for
  Someone,
The world needs more people like that.
