Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

you felt, I changed

i didn't care for hugs, until you were giving them.

i didn't care for stars, until i saw the way you gazed up at the night sky. 

i didn't care for the sunlight until you described the way it felt on your skin.

i didn't care for myself until i saw the way you see me.

Neatly put. Took me back to the Previn/Comden/Green song
"I Like Myself" in the movie musical "It;s Always Fair Weather" -
a pleasurable recollection.
