"Because of You"

Because of you, you did this to me!

Because of you, I'm never free.

Because of you, I am not rested.

Because of you, I'm constantly tested

Because of you, I feel really queasy.

Because of you, my life is no longer easy.

Because of you, just because you tried

Because of you, so many tears I cried

Because of you, people think I'm funny

Because of you, I have no more money

Because of you, I've quit having wild times and fun

Because of you, I'm always on the run

Because of you, I am in so much stress

Because of you, my hair is a ridiculous mess

Because of you, I can't stand still

Because of you, I can't get my fill

Because of you, my hopes are no longer low

Because of you, I feel I'm always way too slow

Because of you, you and all of your steam,

Because of you, I can follow my dream

Because of you, you didn't even know.

Because of you, I watched your show.

Because of you, what you did for me

Because of you, you set me free.

Because of you, I have no fear.

Because of you, my dear.

Because of you, following your dream.

Because of you, I'm creating my team.

Because of you, you inspired me.

Because of you, I've achieved a great degree.

Because of you, I'm no longer blue. 

Because of you, I'd like to thank you.

Because of you, and all that you show me.

Because of you, and you don't even know me.

Because of you, you gave a perfect stranger a shove.

Because of you, it's you that I love.

"Because of You"

This poem is dedicated to all artists and dreamers pursuing their dream everywhere.  You don't even know some of those you touch.  You've touched me.  Thank you.
