After I Met You by: J.A. Burror

after I met you
all at once my life seemed to have changed
I will tell you just how
you affect me in so many ways

the day we met it was I couldn't say
I can't recall the time of day nor wealthier it was
but I remember clear as can be you spoke to me
at first it was two people sharing in the same thought of mind at that time
we were just finding out about each other
then it changed to wanting to know so much more

days turned into weeks and so on
now I find my self wishing for this never to end
this friendship is so much of a gift
you are a treasure and I see you as such

I guess the need and yearning still gets to me
knowing the you I have been honored to know
you have been a blessing to me
for me I laugh at your jokes
even when you tell me you're not
you are funny to me

I smile when I hear from you
it's uncanny almost like it's ear from ear
when I'm down and feel so low
it's you I find I think about

at times I'm a real mess
really I can't stand up right and then I feel strength from around me
I'd call you an angel but I don't wish to judge you
it's just to me you mean so much then I even could convey

I often times leave words unsaid
and forget about plans once made
I can't seem to get out of a funk I'm in
you pull me out and put my head together
showing me which path to take

you are smarter then me on so many levels
but you never once downed me
how could you when you are so sweet to me
it's as if we are sisters
finding out more about you
knowing how your feelings often show through
your heart beating as it does gives me such joy to know

to know you are alive
it has become a comfort to me
and yes I know the truth as it is
we did not grow up together
we are not real blood sisters
but for me
to me that is you are family to me

cause when I get moody and need to share
yell out about how much I hate
whatever
you listen to my woes
you hear me out and then you help me find my way back
so I get to feel more like my self

feeling I need only to shout in my pillow
you lower the stress level
and cool the air I'm in

when I'm drained for so many reasons
and my heart seems to get filled
whenever I see your words to me

my life wouldn't be the same without you in it
life wouldn't be the same without you in it

you are so dear
you are so loved
and I feel I'd truly have missed out of knowing you if we never met first
life would have been less without knowing you
