I didn’t know what I was walking into
Didn’t know I’d be finding you
Not by blood but something real
A kind of love I didn’t think I’d feel

I lost my dad at sixteen years
Been carrying around those tears
And me and my mom… we fell apart
So I learned to guard my heart

I got used to feeling alone
Even in places called “home”
Like love was something I missed
Something I just wouldn’t get

But then you came into my life
And changed what love looks like
You didn’t have to take me in
But you did… again and again

Some things just make sense somehow
And I see it so clear now
When everything felt unsure
You gave me something safe and pure

You saw the hurt I couldn’t hide
And stayed right there by my side
On days I didn’t feel strong
You showed me I still belong

And even after all this time
You never once drew a line
You held me close through every storm
Loved me like I was your own

I’m still grateful for you
For everything you do
When I felt like I had no one at all
You were there through it all

You became what I was missing
A love I didn’t grow up with
Not by blood but by your heart
You chose me from the start

And I don’t say it enough
But you’ve healed parts of me
I thought were gone for good
You loved me like no one could

I’m still grateful for you
More than words could prove
God knew I needed you
And somehow… He sent me you

Still there for me
