Before You Came! ! * Poem by Becky Ginn

Before you came in my life I had no one to turn to
Or no one who really cared. But since you came
You’ve turned it all around by giving me the life
I never had and the one I’ve always wanted.

Before you came I always wanted to fly away
And leave the world behind, but since you came, you
Kept me going and all the people around me
Because now I believe there are people who do care and accept me for who I am.

Before you came I had no interest in education,
And just couldn’t be bothered to do any homework or assignments
Because of what I was going through, but since you came
I love studying and it’s the only thing that keeps me going if I’m down or sad
And my amazing music.

It is that time once again where I have to leave the support behind
But I’ll never forget you for changing my whole life around.
