If I pooled my existence into a neat, little timeline
Pointing out specific places where my life had changed for the better
Showing-off people who have influenced me and made me who I am today with little red flags
If I decided to catalog my life so far on a long, thin, black bar
You would be at the center
At the beginning, and at the end
And in all places, all spaces
All times, memories, triumphs, losses, and happenstances
The black line would be red as a crimson bow
And your name would be leading the way to my future like a pillar of fire
Without you, that line would be stark and stripped and plain
You've made me who I am today
You've been there every step of the way
And I can only hope I haven't been too big of a pain
I love you
Because you've been my saving grace.
