Letter Poem #6~ Adam

You showed me Gods love
And told me he was right there up above 
You made week one grow into many more
And you metaphorically helped me off the floor 

 You adapted as I did, 
No matter how many feelings I hid
And you took me under your wing
Giving me nothing but praises to the Lord to sing

You threw away the knives that scarred me 
And showed who I could really be 
You made life plain for me to see,
And helped me get back some of my dignity 

A poem still isn't enough for me to say thanks 
It won't ever be even the bottom of the ranks
But you reminded me how life isn't always fair 
And showed me step by step how it can be repaired

No words can express how grateful I am
Not even the worlds best dithyramb 
But I expect that the world will know and understand 
When they see how much you are grand 

I like to call myself a we 
Because you must have helped dozens like me 
So broken and discontent 
You gave us a safe place to vent 

You taught me how God loved me so 
You made it a mission for me to be shown 
For God gave us each a gift 
And yours was that you could shape-shift 

You showed me Gods love
And told me he was right there up above 
You made week one grow into many more
And you metaphorically helped me off the floor
