I see you my dear friend
I see the tears you shed
I feel the pain you go through
Here’s my outstretched hand
Take it and I will pull you up
Use my strength
That I give openly give to you
Take my words and learn to heal
And know that I love you
You have given much to me
And now I am here for you
To lean on and depend on
With a willing ear
With an open heart.

RosePetals~
A lovely extension of your friendship.
Loving friends are such an
important part of our lives.
I'm sure your friend feels the
comfort that you offer.
