We're sometimes blessed,
Through a person of equal sharing...
God's gift of a true friendship,
Memories still caring...
Life’s seemingly so different,
Geographical miles apart...
Yet, God continues a true friendship,
Through the bonding of our hearts...
Life presents us each with hurdles,
We're sometimes embarrassed for other's to know...
Childhood memories and freedom of conversation,
God allows true friendship to grow...
We've both been through life,
Somewhat darkened by a cloud...
The lack of a dad's validation,
Never hearing it out loud...
We'll never replace that void,
Missed since our friendship began...
But, today I'm ever more grateful,
For I see it as part of God's plan...
He's allowed us to grow,
Overstep hurdles greater than the cloud...
His gift to me - of your true friendship,
For that, I'll forever be proud.
