Exactly 18 years after my birth
I left home to prove my worth
In my heart I knew there was something I had to find
Yet twas unknown to me in my own mind
Two months after I left
I became the victim of theft
Someone stole from me my very heart
Deep inside my soul I knew, for my new life, this was the start
He was truly all I’d ever sought
I knew this time love was not all for naught
I soon realized he was what I needed to find you see
That ultimately he was my destiny
