Lonely......Then Found

by Bobbie J. Brown - Scorpio

A lonely girl that walked through life
drowning in tears she'd wipe from time to time.
She lost her friends
who were expected to understand,
but for some reason they didn't care
if the weather turned out not so fair.
This girl found it hard to trust,
wondered why her friendship didn't mean enough,
would anyone ever want her love?
Then came one day she stumbled upon you,
one who knew of feelings so blue.
When looking in your eyes, she saw herself
and soon her life came down off the shelf.
That lonely girl (I) found another friend,
she cares and understands
especially when no one else can.
Becky, you were the person that stopped
when all the others did not,
to take my hand and help me through,
I pray that I will never lose you too.
Time does not stand still,
yet with you I believe the end is hardly real.
I thank the Lord above
for giving me your acceptance, your treasured love.
How can you easily like me from inside?
This I sometimes question in my mind,
but when I look back into my past
I realize for that answer, I don't need to ask.
You were one of the few that took the time,
you didn't keep on passing by.
Instead you became my very own best friend,
and it started with a simple helping hand.

Reason for writing:

    While growing up in life, it's easy to question if you'll ever find a real, true friend who can accept you just the way you are.  I wrote this for someone I believe is exactly that.
