No Matter What List

Tell me why after so many falls
                        you can still see the good in me
                        I can't understand it have trouble believing
                        you have somehow set me free

                        There are so many stories and explanations
                        too bittersweet to address
                        Yet here you willingly stand beside me
                        and hold me while I confess

                        Thank you for waiting silently
                        being near when I felt alone
                        Loving me unconditionally
                        in spite of all that I've done

                        There were some
                        who denied me and ran
                        mumbling something about sin
                        I handed them a jar full of stones to throw
                        and courageously asked them to begin

                        Some hurt me deeper than the offense I created
                        and to this day bridges remain burned
                        But not you, my dearest regardless of my faults
                        you still greet me with care and concern

                        In my dreams and quiet moments
                        I will feel a summer kiss
                        and forever you will remain priceless and precious
                        on my No Matter What list
