My "Friend"
February 26, 2011
When I was fourteen, you became my friend;
Friends 'til the end, you said.
Even as people left my side,
You promised no goodbyes.
And when my mommy left my side,
Because of you, I didn't cry.
You are here to hold my hand,
To comfort me when I am scared.
And in some ways you are a mom;
A lover, a friend, a protector.
You hold e close, tell me I'm yours;
You know how much I love these words.
Until I had you, I was alone,
Everyone else left me solo.
But now I have you, and I know you love me,
And I love you too,
Don't I?
