Thank You

I once was a lonesome prisoner
Within my hearts cold walls
I never thought I'd love again
Afraid that I might fall

I had taken many chances
Audacious in my ways
Before I knew my destiny
My dreams were still a haze

I never had direction
I never had a clue
I never knew what love was
'Til the day that I met you

You gave me love uncertain
Of what you would get back
You gave me things I needed
Things of which I lacked

And now tomorrow finds us
Still in each others arms
And each day I am grateful
Of all your many charms

Thank you for the lesson
For freeing me from myself
And know that I would never rest
Your love upon a shelf.
