"That Leap"
for all the moments I fell
you lent me your hand
the days I thought I couldn't handle
you spoke words of wisdom
those nights I dreamt of you
you were dreamin' of me too
when I frowned with sadness that
drained from my cloudy eyes
you showed me the light and embraced
me with arms of an angel
the day I gave up
was the day you said you loved me
the potential you saw in me was
so much more than the depressed
"boy"
I took a chance on love, a love
that was sensitive to the touch
a chance at a moment like this
left me no air, but the very oxygen
contained in your lungs
the chance you took on me, at a life
of obstacles and adventures
I thank you for all the memories
and the one's to pass
you weren't there to humiliate me,
but to laugh with
to be in the moment with me. . .
and I thank you for that.
