I was a hurricane that tore open homes (and) hearts of those I loved.

(You) were the sunshine that appeared after all the damage.

You were the hope that kept people strong.

I always thought I (deserved) dirt because of the person I was,

But you taught me that I was (so much) more than that,

That I was (better) than how I viewed myself.

— You were the best friend any girl could have.
