You

I've held you
when I wasn't even sure I am alive
I've reached you
in the brightest and darkest moments of my life.
I've heard you
in my mind, my heart
I've searched you
when nothing I could find.

I can slay the dark with one hand
if you are holding the other
I can smile all through my life
if you promise to be around.
I can be fearless and fly
if you are there to break my fall
I can even share my ice cream cone
if you will let me have your own :P

I've missed you
all the time I didn't know you
I've kissed you
with every good night.
I've run to your embrace
when rejected by the world
I've been courageous today
having broken this spell
that I've loved you
and always will.
