Being with him I have nothing to hide
It's surprising and so hard to confess
How someone's existence can bring happiness
Together we were even a decade ago
Did we chat as friends do? No!The eleventh year however, brought a queer phase
A small spark of friendship, ignited a blaze
In melancholy I swayed, with scars in my heart
Mishaps and I weren't growing apart
Storms in my soul wrecked my life
A haunting past cut deep sans a knife
Then he came around, he became a friend
He stuck with me through every bend
A passionate fire consumed the venom all
The tower of our friendship stood ever so tall
In my darkest nights, he's my beacon of hope
In my despairs, he helps me cope
None tread your life before it's time
They only do when the heavens are aligned
He's my knight in shining armor,
He's been my saving grace
Had it been a different time, well,
He'd have just been a familiar face...
