I never knew how strong I was
Till life gave me a thousand flaws
But through the storms, you never fled
You stayed and held my fears instead
You didn’t need to shout or save
Your silence made me feel so brave
And every time I lost my way
You helped me breathe another day
You were the quiet strength I missed
The calm within the stormy mist
You stood with love, not needing praise
And walked me through my hardest days
You never had to lead
Just stayed when I had need
No thunder, no loud call
Still, you became my all
I never knew how strong I was
Till life gave me a thousand flaws
But through the storms, you never fled
You stayed and held my fears instead
Now when I see a soul in pain
I try to be their gentle rain
To stand like you once stood for me
A calm, a home, a sanctuary
You were the quiet strength I missed
The calm within the stormy mist
You stood with love, not needing praise
And walked me through my hardest days
I carry now your peace
And give where storms won’t cease
You showed me how to be
A light that sets hearts free
