I was brought into this world grasping for meaning. My thoughts were clouded by worry and fear. But when I met you, the truth became clear. I had nobody I could call my friend, no man or woman on whom I'd confide. But when I met you, you put that aside. I felt no allegiance to any good cause, I wore no colours, swore no vow. But when I met you, you taught me how. I'd all but given up on love. When I felt it, it tore me apart. But when I met you, you mended my heart. You made me whole once again, with you was where I truly did belong. But when we parted ways, we stayed just as strong.
