Let me be the bandage for your bleedings;
Let me be the ocean for youe tears;
Let me be the balm for your healing;
Let me be the song to still your fears;
Let me be the lullable to pacify you to sleep;
Love isn't love that cannot love in darkness,
Nor is it love that turns away from pains;
Nor would I love would I not hold your sadness
And with my love your love of life sustains.
So do not think your malady a burden,
And do not think my willingness deceit.
Just let your sorrows flow into my garden,
And I will share with you the harvest sweet.
Just let your fears and pains flow into my threshing floor,
And together we will winnow them into joyous memories
That are worth celebrating.
Dearie, my best friend,
Such is the power of true friendship.
May we be the best friends forever and till eternity.
