Thank you
For everything said and done
Thank you
For stopping things when they first had begun
Thank you
For making me strong and holding me tight
And for making things more than just quite alright

You were the ones who kept my heart together
When everything else around me started to crash down
You were the ones who made me believe
That if I gave it my all, I could succeed

Thank you
For teaching me to live each day as if it’s my last
Thank you
For showing me how to let go of the past
Thank you
For letting me relax and renew
But most of all
Thank you
For just being you!

You showed me how to get over fear
And to let the bad times
The horrible times
The tears
The fights
The never-ending nights
The pain that lingered
And the drowning memories
Disappear

You took my hand
And never let go
Until you knew I was ready
To go off on my own

You’ve got my back
That’s what family’s for
But you love me
And so much more

So thanks for the memories
And everything you do
So all I can simply say is
Thank you
