the first time
The first time that I saw your smile, I had no idea the way it would change my life.
The first time that I heard your laugh, I couldn't even to begin to imagine the way it would make me feel.
The first time I heard you talk, I didn't now how your words would inspire me.
You walked into my life for the first time and didn't think twice about it.
You didn't think about how hard it could be at times or how you wouldn't always understand specific challenges I experience.
You didn't judge me on how I looked or acted or talked.
You smiled and showed me true acceptance.
You laughed and showed me pure joy.
You spoke and showed me how to change the world.
Just as hard as it can be to be friends with you, it is just as hard as it is for you to be friends with me.
You showed me how to love me, you rode the ups and downs.
You were always there with a hug and sometimes with a frown.
I am no saint for loving you, you're a saint for loving me.
