Thank You

thank you
for being the keys
that unlocked me from
my metaphorical prison
of solitude

thank you
for giving the air
i needed to breathe
to bring forth life
back into my lungs

thank you
for singing the music
that drifts me off to sleep
every night
and wakes me every morning

thank you
for having the hand
to rub me on the back
and comfort me
whenever i feel sad

thank you
for taking the form
of a shadow, to blend
into me, and make me feel
as if we are one

thank you
for being the voice
that called from the darkness
when all i needed
was a good friend

thank you
