TO A FRIEND

Chick

One day when I was so sad & blue
I was feeling so lonely, I didnt know what to do.
I needed someone on whom I could depend;
Someone to care,I needed a friend.
I didn't know who I could turn to,
When all of a sudden,
I thought of you.

We had met before and you were so kind;
So I picked up the phone,to see what I would find .
When you answered the phone I was really scared,
I wasn't quite sure why I had actually dared.
I started to wonder if I had made a mistake,
I wished I could run away and jump into a lake.

You didn't seem to notice how nervous I was feeling.
Although you must have wondered, what in the world I was doing.
We talked for just a little while, and again late that day,
And I wondered if I had finally found a friend that was here to stay.
We've shared so many memories about your life and mine.
A lot of my memories were ugly, so I was waiting for the time
When you would decide I wasn't worth the time spent to be a friend,
I kept wondering when this wonderful friendship would end.

Since then we've talked so often and you've put my fears to rest.,
You've shown that I can be Me , a real friend, I passed the test.
You've given me strength to stand up for myself when I feel that
something's not right.
You made me feel like I could soar up high with the highest kite.

You showed me that a real friend can know about your past.
They can know all about the "real you" , and still show love that lasts.
They care about you in spite of your mistakes and fears.
They show you the kind of friendship that can last for years.

You believed in me when others wouldn't.
You believed in me when I thought I couldn't.
You help me find the courage to be what I want to be.
I only hope that I can be the kind of friend you've been to me..
