Compass

You are my compass.

Now, before you role your eyes let me explain.

I have been through a lot, I have experienced a lot.

I grew up way too fast, with no direction.

And when you found me, I was lost. I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t know what the next step should be. I had no support and no one telling me I needed to figure things out.

And that’s what you did.

You pointed me north.

You didn’t tell me which way south was, or force me to move towards it. That was all on me, but you shined the light on me and let me know I could move forward.

And to this day, when I don’t know what to do, when I am stuck not knowing where to go next, when I am stressed out, and crying, and upset.

Whatever it is I am feeling, you point me north.

No matter how busy you are, how stressed out you are or how much you have going on;

I know you will always find time to point me north.

You are my compass.
