I have been searching the very depths of my mind,
To find words that explain you are one of a kind.
As I can't find the words in pre written prose,
They can't do you justice for nobody knows.
How you make me feel so very precious inside,
How you fill every cell of my being with pride.
That I have a friend, who accepts I am me,
With all of my faults, allows me to be,
A free dancing spirit that has freedom to roam,
But know when I am hurting I can scurry back home.
Back to the safe harbour of your arms though there be,
Thousands of miles, separating you and me.
For there's an invisible thread made from the purest of gold,
Spun by the gods, as I am sure you've been told.
That joins us as soulmates just you and me,
An unbreakable bond I know you'll agree.
This gold it was forged in a fire of long ago dreams,
When souls cared for each other and held in esteem.
The qualities that make each individual unique,
And found only praise of each other to speak.
Like the master jeweller in the days of yore,
You make a thing of beauty of each little flaw.
For none of us are perfect I am so glad to say,
For I wouldn't want it any other way.
You are not like others who say " I like you, you know."
Then start trying to change you, to put you on show.
As the person that they want you to be,
Not allowing you to have your own personality.
Why do they do it I just can't understand?
Why they must change their fellow man.
For I feel it would be such a boring Old World,
If each of us were a perfect formed pearl.
You give me support when my spirits are low,
You share in my joys and I want you to know.
How very grateful that I am you see,
That the angels in heaven have given to me,
The greatest of gifts I could ever receive.
It's a guy who's named …JOE… just especially for me.
You may never hold me, or our lips never touch,
But that doesn't stop me loving you so much.
For deep down within me is a passion that burns,
As I think of you daily and for you yearn.
For in dreams I am cradled in your loving arms,
Kept safe and secure from all that can harm.
You smile at me sweetly with such loving care,
I know I'm not dreaming that you're really there.
We joke and we laugh and cheer each other you know,
I am so proud to have a friend who's named …JOE…
Don't change my friend just stay as you are,
For you are just perfect my bright shining star.
I hope these words help you to see,
How very precious you are …JOE … to…Me…
