Arigatou

I was so jealous because you were stronger
You got all the attention
While I was alone
You called me a loser
You said I could never amount to anything
I hated you, despised you
But somehow I realized
You were more important to me than anything
You would help me with my training
We would compete all the time
I came close to winning
But it was you who made me work harder
The day you left
I felt like a part of me died
I never knew it would hurt this much
To know that you're gone
Three years later
I saw your face
You changed more than I thought
The same pain I felt came back
I realized without you I would never be this strong
All the things I've learned
I've learned so much from you
So thank you for showing me
I can be the best I can be
But it all means nothing
If you're not with me
