Blessed Friendship Your sweet words and outstretched hand Are always there, guiding me forward Your loving encouragement, gentle ways Provide me with such comfort, a soft ease There is no way I could ever express The thankfulness I have in my heart Everything I have struggled through You have been there by my side A broken heart or trampled feelings Your hand is always there, outstretched Pulling me up with your words of love Never leaving me, never letting me down. ~*~*~*~*~ You came into my life Like a beacon in the fog My soul lost in the confusion Of a life gone astray You befriended me when I was most alone My heart, how it cried for understanding You heard those cries amidst hearts aching And you reached out to me A friendship grew from chatroom fun To nights of hours filled with tears and laughter A time for healing and growing Two hearts reaching out for the same dream ~*~*~*~*~ This eternal bond of friendship we share A friendship through the test of time withstanding Always being by each others side, if just in spirit Our friendship forever embedded, our hearts forever blessed. Written by rosepetals25 and Rogue24 The rose was drawn by Rogue24 And a BIG thanks to Balladeer for helping me with the picture "My heart is like an open book, for the whole world to read" - Motley Crue, Home Sweet Home [This message has been edited by rosepetals25 (12-22-2001 09:56 PM).] |

Thank you all for your kinds words, I am passing the credit to Tara, without your friendship Tara, my words would not exist. You managed to bring tears to my eyes when we wrote this today. I again, am in tears, your friendship has been my foundation for sanity, love, and trust in people for so long, it is second nature to love you. With Much Adoration, I love you Tara. HUGS ALL! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! Ter. Alone in the dark, through my thoughts comfort I do seek, through my words I find peace. |
