On shoulder I lean on,
The other I cry.
One hand is for holding,
the other tears does it dry.
A true friend is one,
on which to rely.
Share the love of a friendship,
not the passionate kind.
But a warm gentle love,
is what true friends will find.
From my heart I must say this,
"You are one of a kind!"
You take time for caring,
seeking no personal gain.
Your smile and your warmth,
how it helps ease my pain.
If the tables were turned,
for you, I'd do the same.
For true friends are loyal,
in good times and bad.
So, what I'd like to say,
"You're the best one I have."

"Me"
