FRIENDSHIP
It blossoms like a flower on a warm Spring day.
It has more grace than a dove in flight.
Warmer than the mid-day sun
And brighter than the stars at night.

Lasting as long as time itself.
It is a bond that just can't be broken.
Gives you Heaven when you live in Hell.
There are feelings that can't be spoken.

Neither of us should walk far ahead
And neither of us far behind.
For, if there is trouble to be met
We shall meet it side by side.

My life would be filled with lonely days
And my world would be a much colder place,
If I did not have a friend like you
Who, at all times, I could turn to.

And for all this I thank you
For doing all the things that you do.
But most of all I thank you
For being there and being you.

Thank you for being my friend.
FOR YOU
My heart is filled with loneliness
My mind with thoughts of you.
My life is filled with emptiness
When it's not shared with you.

The days slowly pass away
The nights are long and still.
Tears are cried for every day
That I am not with you.

My heart has feelings that are strong and true.
Feelings that I hold so dear.
Feelings of love just for you
And I'm wishing you were here.

If I could have but just one wish,
A wish for sure to come true.
I wouldn't wish a selfish wish,
I'd just wish to be with you.

Although this poem may not be the best you've read
Or one of perfection, too.
To me it has a special meaning
Because it was written by me just for you.
