Thank You Allie

I found a note tucked in my shoe

It said

"Hey you

The world needs you"

The sky was grey but the words were gold

I felt my heart defy the cold

You showed up like a neon sign

Bright and loud in the darkest time

Thank you Allie

You lit my way

Turned my nights into brighter days

Thank you Allie

You made me see

What the world could be

For someone like me

A paper plane on a windy street

It crashed right down at my tired feet

Inside it read

"You're not alone"

It felt like finding my way back home

Your words cut through like a comet's glow

Where you came from

I'll never know

Thank you Allie

You lit my way

Turned my nights into brighter days

Thank you Allie

You made me see

What the world could be

For someone like me
