Here With Me

Here With Me







I must admit,


There are times when I forgot you were there


Unless I needed you


Then you were the only one I looked to






I have rebelled


From being told how to live my life


But then I found


Only when you are with me, can I be happy






I used to think


I would be just fine on my own


But without you


I found out what it means, to be alone






I was searching


For a peace which eluded me


But then I discovered


It was there all along, with you






Oh stubborn me


Why did I have to fight you?


For so long


I stumbled blindly through darkness






Yet, you waited


Never truly leaving my side


You stayed hidden


So I could find you on my own






I used to care


About what people might think


Now I pity them


For laughing at me, from within the darkness






Let them search


For their own elusive peace


As I celebrate


Finding mine, with you here with me
