I was young, and you taught me something new every day.
In a way, you were my savior.
When you and Mom broke it up, you kept up with two kids alone.
You were our savior.
When we lost the house, you found us another one. Money never kept you down.
Truly, a savior!
When I was hurt, I could look to you.
At those times, you were my savior.
When Mom disappeared and we thought the worst, you were our savior.
And time kept ticking...
And with time, I wanted to pay you back.
It was unfair to let you save me so often, you know!
When I made my first paycheck I had to give something back.
When Sister wanted a puppy to surprise you, I had to give something back.
When Sister moved out and you were hurt, I was still there.
When you lost your job and were struggling with bills, I was still there.
When you woke in pain and needed to be rushed to the emergency room, I was still there.
When you lost control of your legs, I was still there.
When your health got worse and worse, I was still there.
And now that you're gone, and nobody's left, I guess...
I guess I forgot about myself along the way. I'm terrified.
Now, more than ever,
I need a savior.
sorry for this edgepoem everyone there's a lot on my mind tonight and i had to put something out there before i went to bed.
