A lot of us don't take the time to be appreciate the people around us and all that they do, instead we focus on all the negativity in our lives. I dedicate this poem to anyone who it is applicable towards in anyone's life.
Thank you for being someone who cares
Thank you for being there when things get tough
Thank you for accepting me at my worst
Thank you for supporting me when times were rough

Thank you for being my crutch when I stumble
Thank you for lending me a hand when I fall
Thank you for being something constant
Thank you for giving this friendship your all

Thank you for being my voice
Thank you for showing me I'm okay how I am
Thank you for being my blanket
Thank you for actually giving a damn

Thank you for being my tissue
Thank you for always lending an ear
Thank you for giving me courage
Thank you for the laughs that dried up the tears

Thank you for being my pillar
Thank you for being there for support
Thank you for not making me feel like a burden
Thank you for making me a priority, not last resort

Thank you for being my safety net
Thank you for being understanding
Thank you for every time I complained
Thank you for not being demanding

Thank you for each thoughtful gesture
Thank you for every last present
Thank you for saying you love me
Thank you for being the only one who meant it

Thank you for every time you checked on me
Thank you for your stupid smile
Thank you for telling me things would be okay
Thank you for being worth the while

Thank you for all of your strength
Thank you for the way I know you've endured
Thank you for all of your guidance
Thank you for not letting this friendship detour

Thank you for ALL that you've done
Thank you for EVERYTHING this poem does not say
Thank you for NEVER giving up on me
Thank you for ALWAYS being the one to stay

Thank you for putting down in pen what many many of us should be saying to those around us that we love.
