You, My Fortitude

            I owe you...
                my sanity
          After all those years past,
            you still offer your heart
            I owe you...
                my love
          You always supported me
              always helped me
              always held my weight
                    and never buckled
          You read my pain like a tattered book
          You flattened my pages
          You helped me find my place
              My place is with you
                    returning what help & compassion
                            you gave me
            I owe you...
                  sturdyness
            I owe you...
                  a shelf of your own

Author notes

I wrote this for a school extra credit assignment. we were supposed to think of a person and then look around her room and pick a random object and compare the two. Im having trouble thinking of a title...

    I know, someone I owe for sticking by me too, and it's really nice to have someone who was willing to be there when others turned their back.
