What are you supposed to say
To someone who’s been there
Through the good times and the bad
How are you supposed to thank
Someone who makes you smile
And makes you forget you’re sad
How are you supposed to describe
The person who goes the extra mile
Just to light up your day
What are you supposed to say
To the person who to you, finally shows
Sometimes people do come into your life to stay
How are you supposed to thank
The person who always knows
Just what to say or to do
How are you supposed to describe
The person who is so respected
And to herself stays true
What are you supposed to say
To the person who has affected
Monumental choices you have made
How are you supposed to thank
The person that unknowingly impacted your decision
Whether it would be worth it if you stayed
How are you supposed to describe
The person who helped you to envision
Just who you want to be
I really don’t know how to thank
The person who’s been there to watch me fly and to watch me fall
So I just want to tell her that her presence in my life
Is the best gift of them all

Blessed
It’s funny how casually people come into your life
Most walk in and walk out just as fast
But some stay awhile and teach a lesson
While others are perfect for the stage you’re at
Many people have walked in and out of my life
To teach me things like forgiveness and how to make friendships last
Though most walk in to eventually walk out
There are others that don’t quite go so fast
The ones that walk in to stay
In the end are most important of all
They’re there through all the lessons learned
And to pick you up when you fall
They are the ones I won’t forget
As I go on with my life
Because I know when the darkness comes
That they will be my light
As I get older and start out into the world
I remember what I’ve been taught
I’ve learned to laugh, love and dream
But most of all to be thankful for all I’ve got
With all that I have, I’m very blessed
Because most kids just don’t have
People to love and to support them
Like the amazing people that I’ve had
There’s no way these words can describe
All the things you have done for me
I just hope that someday I have the strength
To save someone like you saved me
“God determines who walks into your life; it’s up to you to decide who you let leave, who you let stay and who you refuse to let go.”
