You Made Me See

By: Brooke A. LOVE JUNKIE

I met you only a week ago
And you changed my life.
You made me see what is actually going on,
What people are really like.

You've made me see
What I've been missing
all my life.
You helped me find myself.

All my flaws,
and all my imperfections,
and then you helped me fix them.

You taught me how to love
with my entire heart.
You let me see
the way you really are.

All your flaws
and all your imperfections,
then asked me
to help you fix them.

You made me see
what love can really be like,
when the other person
loves you,
as much as you love them.

You helped me break out
of my self-conscious shell.
You helped me see
what I'm really like.
You showed me things
I didn't even know about myself.

The things you taught, showed, and
made me see
are now the most important things to me.
Why didn't I see these?

It takes a special person
to be able to see inside someone
like you did.

You showed me things about myself
that I didn't even know.
How could I miss them?
They are what makes up my personality
my soul.

Maybe I was too naive,
Maybe I was too self conscious,
Maybe I was not strong enough
to see inside myself
and see my flaws.

But you were so strong-
You know your flaws
and had enough strength
to point out mine.

But you didn't stop there.
YOu were brave enough
to trust me,
and help me fix my problems

You made me strong enough
to love you
like I do.
