U Gave
Since the beginning--when those I thought loved me would never fail me-
U gave me hope.
When the world felt bitter and cold and I had nothing to call my own-
U gave me a understanding.
Time after time when I put all that I had out on the line for someone elses'
fate-
U gave me a lesson.
And when it was my turn to ask for the same assists in my own hardship-
U gave me a prayer.
When I didn't understand why they all seemed to disappear when the lights went out-
U gave me a smile.
When the bones began to crack & chip apart from all the pressure of the world-
U gave me a strength.
When in the hardest times we may have scorned each other with fists of rage-
U gave me a moment of clarity.
But most of all, when I needed that courage the most in my life
U gave me prayer.
U gave me life.
