Think of one person...
Someone that means a lot to you.
Close your eyes, see their face
And remember things they often do.
Think of the jokes you've shared,
Hear their laugh inside your head.
Recall the many sweet memories...
And kind words they have said.
Now go way back
And remember when
The two of you first met...
Were you instantly friends?
What was is about them
You decided you couldn't live without?
Was it the incredible personality?
Or that cute little pout?
Have they ever been so sweet
That you found yourself leaking tears?
What's the greatest thing they've done for you
Over all these years?
Think of that one annoying habit...
The one that drives you up the wall.
Now dismiss that thought and remember this:
Without it they wouldn't be themselves at all.
Be grateful for the years you've shared.
Thank God for the day you met.
Tell them how much you care for them...
Don't ever let them forget.
