"Friend" by Rita Hewes
you stood by me
when things got tough
and never gave up when things got rough
you believed in me
when no one else would
you supported me
when no one else could
you were my map
when I got lost
and my net
when I'd been tossed
you were a friend
when most were strangers
you were there
even though danger
you were a friend

"I thought of you today" by Rita Hewes
I thought of you today
and wondered how you are
are you attending school,
Or have a full-time job
are you happy with your life
in the way it turned out
or are you in regret because
you made some bad choices
are you trying hard to get somewhere, to make your dreams come true
or are you just dealing with
what life has given you
whatever you may be doing today
i wanted you to know
while you were out living your life
I thought about you.

Do you know how it feels to know something is going to happen but you have sworn not to tell? Everyone knows that you know something and they hound you to tell them. You don't. You care so much for the person you have sworn to that you wouldn't say anything, no matter what. You don't agree with what they are going to do, but there is nothing you can do to stop it. Persuasion won't work, and telling someone would just break the relationship with that person into pieces. So you keep quiet, hoping for the best outcome, Even if that outcome means the other person ends up hundreds of miles away and you constantly loose track of them. They never really leave your mind or your heart. And that person always remembers that you kept their secret.

you came into my life
and in a flash
everything changed
my days are brighter
my nighta are warmer
and my heart no longer aches
