In my life, very few friends can be compared, 
To the very deep love, that we have shared, 
Throughout the rough spots, 
You stood beside me, 
Encouraging me to continue on, 
Knowing that things would get better with time. 

For all those times you stuck beside me, 
For all the hugs you gave me when I needed them most, 
For all the love you showed when I deserved it not, 
Today.... I say thank you. 

You have been an angel in my life, 
Appearing to me when I needed you most, 
Our special friendship, you did host, 
Never will I forget you,
Nor will I abandon you when you need me. 
That is the beauty of your friendship. 

It has been a two way street. 
Neither of us giving more than the other, 
Our only mission was to share in the pain and in the laughter,
making our path a bit easier.

An angel in my life, 
Words that describe you well, 
Today I say a heart felt "thank you" 
I love you, can you tell?
