best friends poem

A Letter to a Friend
 

You reign above each one I know with the love I will forever bear
The love of thanks and admiration from the depths of a heart that carries life twelve years too late.

If comfort, strength and inspiration come from heaven, then you my friend, are an angel

"Friend", such a word that carries not few enough meanings - these meanings of which in circumstance we cannot agree.

"Friend", I sit and question in the darkness of light . . .the lightness of day . . . but still will see, will hope, will make believe much more than your practical theory - the truth

I understand but cannot accept the locks and bars of professionalism.

I long not for the games, but the closeness of a companionship with the one who understands my dreams, and is a constant reminder of who I want to be.

Friends shake their heads, they say I've changed.
I though, am nodding, and I raise my hand to a teacher as a student always should, not stepping out of line, not calling out loud.

The Champions Theme
I sing the champions theme this day
A tale of honor and love
A tale I know of close experience
From an angel bestowed upon me from above.

I sing the champions theme this day
A tale of sorrow and guilt
A tale I know of close experience
Upon which all my foundations have been built.

I sing the champions theme this day
A tale of understanding and trust
A tale I know of close experience
Whose hateful words are light as dust.

I sing the champions theme this day
I sing it from my heart
I sing of the angel I know so well
The angel from which I shall never part.
