YOU

YOU

A Poem by C. Lee Battaglia
"

About my best friend.

"
YOU


I still remember the first day we met

We were too shy to say much at all

It's funny to think back to that time

Because now we're having a ball!


They say that true friendship is rare

An adage that I believe to be true

Genuine friendship is something that I cherish

I am so lucky to have met you.


Our bond is extremely special

It is unique in its own way

We have something irreplaceable

I love you more and more each day.


We've been through so much together

In so little time we've shared

I will never forget all the moments

that you've shown me how much you cared.


Friends are forever

Especially the bond that you and I possess

I love your fun-filled personality

Somehow you never fail to impress.


The world could use more people like you

it would certainly be a better place

I love everything about you

You are someone I could never replace.


You are always there for me

When my spirits need a little lift

I cannot thank you enough for that

You are truly an extraordinary gift.


You are everything to me and more

I could never express that enough

Life is such a treacherous journey, and

Without you it would be even more tough.


Our story will continue to grow

With each passing day

Because I trust that with you by my side

Everything will always be Okay.


You are so dear to me

You know I will love you until the end

I will always be there for you, and

You will always (and forever) be my best friend.

This piece of your heart penned to page reminds of someone you knew and lost, sadly so ... This is a beautiful poem, exquisitely written in the plainest language of saying I love you without saying it ... You words are felt as very sincere and touching ... Me thinks I shall shelve this piece, and share it with my best friend on Facebook ... I was grumpy with her this morning, and she needs a lift ... This poem will brighten and make her day, as you have just made mine ...

This is so sweet, just adorable! I could see this written in a card or a personal letter, and I know this feeling so well. It fits perfectly with me and my best friend(s). I really liked this little poem.
