Some people spend entire lifetimes alone,

They’re surrounded by people, but never truly known.  

I’m fortunate I found a friend in you;

Our friendship forged in heart and sinew.

 

For all the sunny skies, starless nights,

The joyous days, and the harrowing blights,

You stayed, when no one else would,

Held my hand through the bad and the good

 

You’ve wormed your way into my heart,

You’ll live there forever, though you’re miles apart,

And though it’s silly; the future I cannot foresay,

I know we’ll be friends till we’re old and grey
