Your smile was my smile
Your sorrow my pain;
Together we promised to be
Inseparable like the blind and his cane.
Together we wished to paint
The sky, the sun, the meadows..
Together we promised to fight
The blues and the shadows.
The years passed by
The journey unending..
At every turn I found you,
Beside me, silently defending.
You said what we share is beyond words
And I held it dearly true..
O my best friend!
Why do I now have to do without you?
They told me people change..
Yet I did not believe so
For I had full faith
That friends will be friends and foe, foe.
I still don't know when
The light breeze turned to storm;
It took away my dearest friend
And thrust upon me life's newest form.
It wrecked our promise
To face the hail and enjoy the sunshine..
It left me with only memories
"Of too much love and too much wine".
The memories will be cherished;
It is the loneliness I fear,
The constant stab of not knowing
Why you shed that silent tear..
How I hate to miss you
How I hate to cry!
But Time's call will have to be answered
Though all I'll say is a silent Goodbye.
May you have Life's best,
Wish your life is a rainbow hue..
And everytime the horizon darkens
Remember I'm always there for you!
This is dedicated to my best friends.. just for being the people they are and all that they are to me!
