In this world of turmoil
I have found a sensitive soul
One that offers me the comfort
that I just can't find on my own

He has been there through every adventure
with his profound wisdom, strength, and smile
I have found someone who cares
and with him I can face every trial

I have found the best friend we all wish for
The opposite that has cleary attached
And when they all say I should be with him
I shake my head slowly no, I love him on a whole
different level and for him I write this ode.

For how does one say thank you,
for too many times to count,
I am afraid I am not too good with numbers,
but that of course has never been his fault.

So I am writing now the words,
that even I the public speaker can't say,
I love him, not in that way or theirs,
but in ours for forever and two days.

To him I now make this promise,
I will be there through all of his strife
and even if my smile may not be as bright as his
I will be his best friend for life.

Some will understand...
some will not...
and then again...others, will.

Thank you
for sharing.
