Before I met you I felt alone
And frightened by my grief
My happiness was overshadowed
And my smiles were only brief

I became my own worst enemy
And felt I had so little to give
And then you came along
And gave me more reason to live

You took my hand and guided me
Away from my gloom and despair
And you brightened up my being
Whenever you were there

You helped me to understand
That real love starts from deep within
That's about the time I started to feel
My love for you begin

You found some good in me
I didn't even know was there
How much you lifted my spirits
As you showed how much you cared

No longer was I alone
And now my grief has gone away
Thank you for all you've done for me
And for all the sweet things that you say

Sometimes it takes another to recognise the best in us, before we give ourselves credit.

Sentiments like this can be applied to best friends as well.

Wonderful write Sue, Isn't it great what love can do for someone.

Throw your heart out in front of you
And run out to catch it.
