My Friend


My friend

When you came into my life I didn’t know how much I needed you.You smiled at me and then you clumsily said hello. Your simple words warmed me.

My friend

You were not afraid to share your weaknesses with me - for me to see all of you.

Your honesty gave me the courage to open the locked box that held my fears, my sadness, my joy, and my heart.

My friend

You showed me the stars.

You taught me appreciation for those things in life that I misunderstood.

You gave me insight. You helped me grow.

My friend

When I thought I would drown in a sea of sorrow the buoyancy of your laughter became my raft.

You reached me. You touched me. You saved me.

My friend

Thank you.

My friend

I love you.

My friend
