My Gratitude


How did you get in my heart?
Your words are my life
Being sung in that beautiful voice;
So dark but not fearful.
Comforting, like you're there by me.
I struggle everyday to continue,
Trying to forget the lies.
Always wishing to be different~
Someone, anyone else.
But then I hear you again,
Not my angel but my savior.
And even though you don't know me,
You fill my heart with strength.
I look at you on my wall,
Your piercing eyes that seem to know,
Your messy hair I love.
Everything about you comforts me.
From the way you hold your guitar
To the way you look when you smile.
And then I know I'll make it,
Because of you, Johnny, I'll survive.
