The turmoil over my best friend is such
What we have in common seems to be so much
But it's our differences that keep me from you
Opposites attract I know this to be true
Many of the opposing forces
Draw my attention to you
Your devious delightful grin
Lovely locks and smiling eyes of blue
Or are they green or maybe gold
A mysterious quality I've yet to unfold
It's so hard sometimes when I think about you
Your magnetic personality, tom-boyishness, and femininity too
My mind ponders, is it enough, can I always remain true
Or will my shallowness someday come tarnishing through
I just wish, I want, I need to know
Can I be forever faithful or is it best I let go?
Either way, I will not stymie you as you grow
For a beautiful blossoming is so soon to show
I want to be there even if nothing but a friend
To see the results of The Lord's mend
It is your heart that I wish never to rend
Thus, I'm not sure if a promise from me would never end
There are times when all I want is to please
And then others in which your heart not to seize
I do enjoy the times I spend in your sphere
But maybe it be better if someone else you'd have near
And so I wait
But what I want more than anything else, your happiness
So do not wait for me
I have no idea at all how long it will be
if ever
Some of the many negatives of mine
Lazy, shallow, self-centered, and slow
All of them plus the others you know
So my wish is for you this Christmas day
Is for The Lord to brighten your way
May He bring to you a heart that is true
And one that will never leave you blue
My Sister in Christ,
AFFE
