You Are The Key

Driving home I figured out what you mean to me,
You are my true first love, that I do not doubt.
But what is it that makes you impossible to forget?
Then like I knew it all along, the answer was so clear.
I grew up sheltered and afraid of who I was,
I didn’t know the loving touch, I didn't recognize feelings.
You opened my eyes to the world of relationships,
Showed me that friends can be the pillar of stability.
When my feelings were hurt, you reminded me of my worth,
Never for a second letting me think I was less than I am.

The confidence you gave me made me connect feeling good with you,
I began to think I was only worthwhile in your eyes,
Letting that shy girl come out when we were apart.
I didn't think that anyone could see me just like you did,
And like a drug, I only felt good in your presence.

Still sheltered I went through a year of my life,
Then you opened yet another door, connecting me to the physical,
Another part of me was given to you,
Another sensation only experienced with you.
When we weren’t together I couldn’t imagine being with someone else.
Time went by and the last door was opened,
You had experienced all of me there was to give,
My heart, My soul, My everything was given to you.
