I could always count on your understanding
Your patience to take the time with me
When I can't see so clearly
And I know these virtues are so rare
In a world so driven by the self
And so focused on locking down more than opening up
But I know we're not just one
And acceptance is a condition of love
Acceptance of difference and people in life
To take folks as they are and look for their light
There was a time in my life
When anger got the best of me
It made it hard for me to see
The world, the things right in front of me
But your existence made me know another way as a possibility
That you could hold a smile and handle things so skillfully
So i know we're not just one
And it takes effort to cultivate love
Putting forth patience for people in life
Meeting folks where they are
Seeing less of wrong and more of right
And as I grow I hope to be a little more like you
I try to grow it inside of me
That compassion comes from understanding
A heart more accepting, open to difference, open to life
It's what I've learned from seeing you live
And hearing your words, and knowing your heart
It's in everything you do, it envelops you
Thank you
