Your resilience inspires me |
|
Facing tragedies I will never face |
|
Your presence is humbling |
|
To think of all that you have overcome |
|
It took such little pain |
|
For our lives to coalesce |
|
Finding what I could've found in no one else |
|
You bring me through the darkness of myself |
|
And show me that frailty can be turned to strength |
|
Suffering |
|
Persistence |
|
Such sorrow |
|
Yet resilience |
|
From the outside I've deceived the world |
|
With false bravery |
|
Yet you have taught me so much more |
|
Much more than I can ever teach |
|
And someday you might |
|
Need someone to lean on |
|
I can only hope that I'll have gained the courage |
|
To be there for you in whatever you face |
|
You bring me trough (you bring me through) |
|
The darkness of myself |
|
And show me that frailty (can be turned) |
|
Can be turned to strength |
|
Suffering |
|
Persistence |
|
Such sorrow |
|
Yet resilience |
|
At times I'm carried on the shoulders of a child |
|
I find power in your firm fallibility |
|
My source of hope is seeing that weak prevail |
|
And I'm better able to live because you're alive |
|
I could not imagine a world without you |
|
Where I looked you in the eyes and left you to die |
|
Suffering |
|
Persistence |
|
Such sorrow |
|
Yet resilience |
