I put

you above all

for walking away from you now is not an option.

You would rather walk away from everything in my life than walk away from you.

You saved and you keep my safe and you’re the only one who believes in me even when I doubt myself.

You are the reason I can tolerate people and love dogs and just want to keep learning the many things going on in this world.

You are the reason I get up everyday and the reason I will leave this world knowing I grew up on the right side of the street.

I made better decision in my life with you around and I know that one day you will rescue me from the hell I’m in.

You will be my heaven and my peace for maybe the suffering and stress that is over pouring me right now is just a way for you to help strengthen me through the end.

My screams are unheard and the pain and sorrow that is hidden so well are always seen by you and you take in each note you find interesting.

You are different and so am I and I have learned and I will continue to enjoy the new things in my life.

I put you in my pocket for I knew this day would come and I would need all the support that could find.
