This poem is dedicated to a person from Passions. He should know who he is. He gave me some good advice (which I needed) even though he knew that I would probably be disappointed . To me that took 'guts' and for that I dedicate this poem to him.

A true friend will stick by you
Through trials and tribulations
No matter what the conclusion
He'll be there telling you what to do

He's someone who is always there
And will tell me the truth
Not worrying about me being brute
Even knowing it's not what I want to hear

I was disappointed at what he first said
But I know he said it for my own good
I'm glad he did what he thought he should
For his words became comforting as I read

Trust is hard to come onto
And true friends are even harder to find
I have found a true friend in my mind
'Cause the true friend I have found, is you.


Every action of our lives touches some chord that will vibrate in eternity.

Thanks for a sweet poem, Starr.      It brought a smile to my face, it really was tough to give you the news and I was worried you'd be very upset afterwards but hey... I thought you deserved to know the truth.
I'm sure many of us have been in this situation.  
For all you curious people, wondering what I'm on about, read this thread.

This is a great dedication to a friend.  Just make sure that this person knows who you are writing to, so he doesnt overlook it!

I get so many of these.  Ron should make a new forum called "Dedications to Allan Riverwood."
