A Better Place
You were a slow and subtle induction into my life
You asked me if I would have lunch with you
Even though I was bravely scared, I said yes
We had no way of knowing the strife
You were special from the start
Your eyes sparkled like the reflection of the moon on water
And with that mischievous grin of yours
Without knowing, you stole my heart
I gave into your kisses, your touch
You took me places I have never been
Places I could never go again
Because of you, I have learned so much
Some things were out of our hands
Now looking back upon that time
Searching my heart, my soul
I realize after all you’re just a man
But time has brought us to where we are today
Because of you I feel free and complete
I just want you to know my friend
I wouldn’t want it any other way
So thank you for being you
For allowing me to be a part of your life
And you a part of mine
I have grown so much because of you
Even through the heartache, the pain, and tears
I would gladly do it all again
For it has led me to a better place
A place where I hope to be friends for years.
