About friendship

[sherlyk]

I could write for hours,
Use the finest words in Webster's,
Fill pages upon pages with verse -
Only two words are needed,
Two words are everything I want to say:

Thank you.

Two words, two syllables
So tiny,
In these words I say so many things -
You are very special,
Holding my hand when the world is too much,
Hugging me when I can not bear life:

Thank you.

I have shown you my heart of hearts,
The person inside I am afraid to reveal.
Your sweet words and sweet face,
Bringing me back from the edge,
All I can do is . . .

Thank you.

If I could write a poem.
I would write it just for you.
But I can not write a poem.
So what am I to do?

If I could write a poem.
I would tell you lots of things.
Of love and happiness.
and the Joy your friendship brings.

But I can not write a poem.
So you will never know.
Just how much I love you.

And now I have to go!

I'm not sure when it happened
But I'm very glad it did...

You came into my life when

I really needed a friend.

The more I get to know you
The more I know myself.

You and I are different...
And in many ways the same.

Your good ear, compassionate heart,
will always find you fame...

I promise to always be here,
Forever and to the end.

You are the true definition of a True Friend.

I am here
in the night
wondering,
thinking.

It rains outside,
cold
and scary in the dark.

I lay here
thinking about you
all day it seems.

I wonder
do you miss me
because I miss you.

This feels like eternity
being away from you.

I have butterflies
and smiles
just thinking about you.

This makes me want
to be with you in person
all so much more,
to see you're face.

In you're embrace
I wish to be,
you;
I seek.

I can't help
but feel
like I'm locked
in a tower
awaiting your rescue

I can't help
but wonder
how you feel
and if you miss me.

Being away from you
I hate it
So soon my prince
I will find you
we shall be once again.

Your cheerful smile
Your caressing hand
It's the really simple things
That make your life look so grand

You're a special woman
It's in your eyes
I see the truth
There is no disguise

It's your spirit
Maybe your soul
But my life without you
Would feel painfully old

You've been a true friend
I hope you stay
I would be so very empty
If you ever went away

God must have known there would be times
We'd need a word of cheer,
Someone to praise a triumph
Or brush away a tear.

He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of "little things"
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.

I think He knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain,
At trials and misfortunes,
Or goals we can't attain.

He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.

He knew we'd need companionship,
Unselfish... lasting... true,
And so God answered the heart's great need
With cherished friends... like you!

Although you are a friend of mine
and letters we exchange,
I wouldn't know you on the street,
and doesn't that seem strange?

You hold a place within my life,
unusual and unique;
We share ideals and special dreams,
and still, we do not speak.

I picture what I think you are,
perhaps you picture me.
An intriguing game for both of us
for someone we can't see.

So for this friendship we possess,
we owe this mail a debt,
Perhaps the charm lies in the fact
that we have never met.
