My Friend Poem by Shayna O'Connell

Your eyes filled with emotion
your smile sparkles like new fallen snow
I only wish that I knew how
to let my true feelings for you show.

Beneath your tough appearence
lies a heart of solid gold
I don't want to give up our friendship
no matter what I've been told.

Your kind soul and tender spirit
can brighten anyone's lousy day
your gentle touch and soothing voice
make all my fears just melt away.

Wrapped in your arms I find warmth
I feel so safe within your grip
one thing's for sure your friendship's
made these four years quite a trip.

Even though those precious years
came to a sad and tearful end
I hope you know no matter what
you'll always be my friend.
