A Special Friend
Encouragement
{For My Friend Marge}

Being told you'll never succeed
At anything you want to do
After awhile you just give up
And you don't even try to

A kind hearted person like you
Just happens to come along
Encouraging me the way you do
Making me feel like I do belong

Giving me the inspirations
To help me break out of my shell
Always taking away my doubts
So with you, how can I fail

I know you don't understand
Just how much it means to me
To get so much encouragement
As I have recieved from thee

I thank you for the confidence
You always seem to have in me
It's something I've never recieved
Not even from my own family

I Will Remember You
~For A Special Friend~

Some kids grow up given lots of confidence
Others grow up being told they make no sense
Given no encouragement to even want to try
I just let things go, pass me right on by
Always being to what I could and couldn't do
I felt like there was just no use

After I left home, it took me so many years
Just to get over, all of those fears
Of never being able to be good enough
Sometimes it felt as if life was just too tough
Still I would keep on struggling right through
Then several years later, I met someone like you

Even though I wasn't anywhere near as good as you
You kept on encouraging me, right on through
Encouragement you gave me, right from the start
To continue writing, what was in my heart
Inspirations you would often send me
It was as if you saw something in me, I didn't see

I always knew, I was no one special and never would be
Still when I met you, you accepted me just for being me
That meant more to me, than you will ever know
Cause with you, my confidence started to grow
And, even though I started alot later in life
I will remember you each time, I start to write
