You've taught me to be brave.

You've given me an escape.

You've taught me how to feel every emotion down to my deepest core. 

You've watched me grow, and you've seen me cry.

You've taught me to be selfless, but also to be selfish. 

Without you I would still be alone. 

You've become my home.

You've taught me how to love (deeply and passionately).

You've taught me words can make a difference. 

But most importantly,

You've shown me who I am.

If I do not have you, I have nothing.

Thank you.
