I lost myself years ago,

when my bestfriend left me alone.

People I love isolated me away,

like a non-existent living in this place.

But then I found you.

Trying to heal my wounds when I didn't want you to.

Though I rejected your request as friends,

you were always there for me.

You just wouldn't let me be.

I was upset at first, but I couldn't be angry at you,

you were too kind and you were always calm and cool.

You can protect yourself from others but I could not,

and helped others who were beaten or were injured after they fought.

I couldn't help but admire,

you.
