For my friend Written for some friends who can always make me smile, laugh, cry or be angry. Usually its smiles and laughter:-)` I thought I was alone I thought no one cared Then you came into my life And changed it You made me see I was someone special You gave me the confidence to confront my fears. You encouraged me and talked to me When I needed you I could call When my car battery died you jumped it When my dog died, I cried on your shoulder You made me see my fears were groundless You accepted me as I was, w/o expecting change For all this and more I am truly grateful Without you I would be an empty shell Alone in a room, cold and desolate Or perhaps in a coffin by my own hand So if something happens to me Grieve for me But do not let the grief take away any of your happiness For you gave me something more valuable than any tangible object You gave me your friendship And for that, I thank you ------------------ Time flies? Say it not so, time stays we go. |

This is reminiscent of that wonderful song.."You Needed Me" "I cried a tear You wiped it dry...." Nice sentiments in this work... |

Cuddlez - I'm so glad you have a friend who accepts you, loves you and encourages you. Friends are the BEST of all possible choices we make in our lives. We should all make sure we are a friend to our friend. Hand in hand ... they share with us and us with them. Nicely put. And you ARE someone SPECIAL ! ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

isn't it the most wonderful feeling to know you have friends that care like this? What would we ever do without them? |
