Broken
[Verse]
You found me broken on the cold
Hard floor
A shadow of someone I was before
You reached through the darkness
Held out your hand
Pulled me to places I could barely stand
[Chorus]
You loved me when I couldn’t love myself
You saw a fighter in the pain I felt
You held me together when I fell apart
Built me piece by piece
Mended my heart
[Verse 2]
The mirror whispered lies I believed
But you saw beauty underneath the grief
Your voice
A light
Cutting through the night
You gave me wings when I’d lost my fight
[Chorus]
You loved me when I couldn’t love myself
You saw a fighter in the pain I felt
You held me together when I fell apart
Built me piece by piece
Mended my heart
[Bridge]
These scars
They shine like a map of my war
Every crack
A place where I was restored
I wear them proud
They tell my tale
Proof that with love
I’ll always prevail
[Chorus]
You loved me when I couldn’t love myself
You saw a fighter in the pain I felt
You held me together when I fell apart
Built me piece by piece
Mended my heart

that's exactly how I felt about my second husband. I met him at a time in my life when I need emotional support. He was always there for me. GREAT poem
