My Best  Friend

My Best Friend
Today I found a friend,
Who knew everything I felt.
She knew my every weakness,
And the problems I've been dealt.

She understood my wonders,

And listened to my dreams.

She listened to how I felt about life and love,

And knew what it all means.

Not once did she interrupt me,

Or tell me I was wrong.

She understood what I was going through,

And promised she'd stay long

I reached out to this friend

To show her that i care

To pull her close and let her know

How much I need her there

I went to hold her hand

To pull her a bit nearer

And realized that this perfect friend I found

Was nothing but my mirror.

My Special Friend

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

BESTEST FRIEND !

When I cry you help me out

When I'm happy you hear me shout

When I grin you know I'm really mad

because you are my best friend

You can tell when I'm sad

You're there in thick and thin

You're my best friend

You hear me out when I want to talk

You help me out when I get mad

You are the bestest friend I've ever had

So hear me out when I say

You're the light in my day

You are the moon in my night

You shine very bright

You are the bestest friend I have

and I miss you

You Are my Friend 

When you feel sad and betrayed

Who can you count on every single day?

When you feel lost and alone

Who will be there for you in every way?

When you've made mistakes and bad decisions

Who can you count on to tell you you're wrong?

When you feel you can't go on

Who will be there with a feel-better song?

Look into your heart and you will find

That person you can trust is not far away.

Look deep into yourself, don't give up,

For if you do, it's yourself you'll betray.

When you're looking for answers

To all your questions and dreams,

There is one person you can count on,

It's impossible, I know, it seems.

But take a few moments to look deeper inside.

Look into your heart and there you will see.

You'll be surprised when you find out

That you've been looking at ME.

With affection true friend
