right here

You once hesitated, afraid to trust,

a heart wary of people, of promises unkept

I remember telling you softly,

“Don’t trust blindly, but a little caution won’t hurt”

And still, I tried — to reach you, to support you,

to know you in the small corners you let the world see

Over time, I’ve watched your steps forward,

the center of your world returning to you,

self-focus blooming like sunlight catching your smile

Happiness suits you, and I love to see it

So here I am, quietly grateful,

appreciating you, appreciating your journey,

and thankful for you — for your smile, your growth,

for letting me witness even a small piece of your world.
