Because of You

Because of you, I became very weak.
That hill to climb was very steep, but
Because of that, I learned how to wait longer.
I am now so much stronger.

Because of you, I shed many tears.
The water wasn't very clear, but
Because of that, I learned how to swim.
My life is no longer hanging on limb.

Because of you, I fell down,
and I never even made a sound, but
Because of that, I learned how to speak.
My voice is no longer weak.
