GLAD
When we met
it was all so new
But where I saw fear
You saw hope
You said it'd be okay
that no matter what,
I was loved
And I was glad
I have new friends
Because you told me
it was okay to accept them
To let them help me
I got to know you
I came to love you
And for a time
I got to have a best friend again
Now you're gone forever
And all I've got left
are my memories of you
And the hope you gave me
I'll never forget you
I'll use the lessons you taught me
In your brief time in this world
to help others like you
And in the end
even though I cry every day
I'm GLAD I met you
and I wouldn't change it for the world
