Looking back, through the years,
Laughter, pain, joy, and tears,
Events we can never forget,
There are roads to be traveled yet.
I see you for who you are,
Beyond the bruises, scrapes, and scars,
To a heart loyal, strong, and true,
I will always stand by you.
Every time I fall or stumble,
Encouragement is what you mumble,
Words so soft, powerful, and lasting,
Love and guidance without asking.
Though we have our imperfections,
They became our strong connections,
Understanding without words,
Sharing secrets never heard.
Beautiful, is what you are,
Heaven's brightest, shining star,
No matter what the future holds,
I see what you have to show.
Every experience, a lesson learned,
The road has many twists and turns,
But wherever the path may lead,
I hope you will be there beside me.
You have a place in my heart,
No matter how far we drift apart,
You always have, and always will,
A space that only you can fill.
My friend, a solid rock in life,
To see me through whatever strife,
I may encounter along the way,
Advice and wisdom, you will say.
He knew how much we’d need each other
I love you like family, like no other,
God blessed me with a wonderful friend,
To be there until the very end.
