He was ...
my warmth on a cold day;
my light on a starless night;
my familiar face in an unfamiliar place;
my safety net after a long fall;
my smile on a sad day;
my strength in a weak moment;
my comfort in a hard time;
my guide on a windy road;
my hands when I was tied;
my voice when I was silent;
my reason for living;
my cause of death;
my drug of choice.
