The Truest Gift - 1. The Truest Gift
He stood out while I stayed in
He fought while I hid
He demanded the right to be
I kept the secret that was me
He said “I am what I am and deal with it’
I said ‘No! I’m not like that’
I watched him from afar as he dared to be
He held out his arms and said come in
I took a step and said it out loud, buy only to me
He smiled and said ‘One step at a time’
I walk in his shadow
Protected from the world
I never met him, but I didn’t care
He gave the courage to start to be
He blazed the trail for me to follow
I followed behind gaining confidence in every stride
He gave me the courage to be myself
The truest gift I ever received
