You Make It Better

You make breathing easier. For so long I’ve held my breath as I feared breathing would mean I had to live through another moment of uncertainty.

You make looking in the mirror everyday exciting. For so long I couldn’t look myself in the eyes, the reflection staring back at me ashamed of the many erroneous choices I’d made in the past.

You make the sun seem as though it’s shining brighter, even when it’s raining outside. For so long a dark cloud of sadness followed me around like an 80’s cartoon. Constantly raining the pain of regret down on me.

You make my smile bigger than it’s ever been. For so long I’ve faked happiness. I’ve made others feel the way I wanted to feel, and it was never returned. Only taken for granted. But I would go on smiling and pretending that life was good. I no longer have to “fake it”!

You make food taste better, you make my favorite tv show livelier. You make laughing seem as though I’m floating on a cloud with all of my ancestors applauding me saying “job well done”. The happiness has no end. You make going to work everyday feel like I’m living my best life, because I know at the end of the day, there is you, waiting to Make anything that went wrong, BETTER!!!

You make me BETTER, you make life BETTER, you make US BETTER, you make IT BETTER!
