I've Made Some Changes. Dedicated To My Lifetime Friend...K.P.

  A Kinder Place To Fall

I can't remember and I can't even recall
A time I've ever felt a more tender moment at all
Than when I take your face along when I dream
There's nothing like the night to bring you closer to me...

You have there in your hands the surest way together
So, I hold true that feeling will last forever
And, when nature is the way I find freedom within
Then I see and I feel you with each breath I'm given...

It's in your heart that I have learned to really believe
That this moment in life was so meant to be
And, I surely can't tell you that I've never been loved at all
But, have I told you, My Friend, you're my kinder place to fall...

I have seen a heartache one can hold a million times or two
And, all the things I've asked God for he seemed to answer them with you
Now, I can't surely tell you I have never loved at all
But, I know the way to a greater days, you're my kinder place to fall...

It seems I can find so many words when I close my eyes to dream
But, each time I find my way to you, I find it hard to leave
It's in your strength that I can stand for a moment on my own
But, Friend, with you, I can take the fall, when nighttime finds me home...

Now, I know sometimes even the strongest can cry, but I'd never do that to you
I know what it's like to wake in the night, to wonder what you've just been through
My friend, I am not him and I am not her at all
I'm just one you can call on too and a kinder place to fall...

Saunni
What a wonderful tribute to someone who is obviously a very important part of your life. We can never have too many friends and some are so very unique and selfless.  
Take care........Sue

What a lovely thing to write to your friend, who yes, obviously means a lot to you, but I can tell you must be a very important part of their life as well.  Beautifully done Saunni.
