you

you, the friend who broke down my walls
you, the epoch of new I couldn't see
you, the freedom i found without breaking
you, the oxygen i didn't know how to breathe
you, the healing for wounds so deep
you, the seasons - like falling leaves
you, the gentleness i never knew to crave
you, the hunger i could only dream
you, the wealth i never could hold
you, the rest of a beautiful sleep
you, the hope i could never believe
you, the reflection of a Shepherd I adore
you, the sound of my own heart beat
you, the friend who knows my broken
you, the soul of what it means to be free
you, the everything i didn't see coming
you, the precious gift to me.
